"Mr. Massey has been too fearless and too persistent a reformer to be appreciated in his time, but his words and worth will be treasured in the brighter day, when we shall see dawning a social order which shall end enforced "slavery for man, prostitution for woman, and ignorance for the child." -B.O. Flower Gerald Massey, Poet, Prophet, and Mystic (1895) by B. O. Flowers is at once a biography of the 19th century poet and a tribute which extolls Massey's writing and his intellectual contributions, quoting liberally from the poet's own writing. Among Flowers's strongest arguments for admiring Massey is that "Many of Massey's poems are as applicable to the problems now confronting us as if called forth by present-day conditions in our own land."

"It is difficult to imagine a slavery more senseless, cruel, or far-reaching in its injurious consequences than that imposed by fashion on civilized womanhood during the past generation." -Benjamin Orange Flower, Fashion's Slaves Fashion's Slaves (1892) by B. O. Flower is a short appeal for women's dress reform. Citing a recent session of the International Council of Women, Flower maintained that this was the most important question it dealt with. The pamphlet argues that the belief that fashion and beauty are the same is a myth that must be debunked, so that women will stop harming themselves with tight corsets and other accessories that are dangerous to their health.
