About Project Moxon

“a kindness for Posterity”

— Joseph Moxon, Mechanick Exercises

Project Moxon is a small, independently curated digital library named for Joseph Moxon (1627–1691), the English printer who documented and shared the practical knowledge of his craft.

Our collection focuses on overlooked works, particularly older fiction and stories originally published in books, magazines, and comic books. Some ebooks come from existing public-domain collections; others are newly transcribed and proofread from original sources.

Copyright terms differ between countries. Readers are responsible for checking the applicable laws in their own jurisdiction.
