Scouting Frontiers
Author: Nelson R. Block
Publisher: Cambridge Scholars Publishing
ISBN: 1443804738
Category : History
Languages : en
Pages : 290
Book Description
Despite the fact that Scouting has touched the lives of a quarter of a billion boys and girls and their leaders around the world in the past century, its history has been largely ignored. Scouting Frontiers: Youth and the Scout Movement’s First Century is the first book to discuss the history and principal themes of the Boy Scout and Girl Guide movements on an international scale. Inspired by presentations at the ground-breaking 2008 Johns Hopkins University symposium, "Scouting: A Centennial History," the authors examine the world's greatest youth movement through the diverse experiences of its members and their organizations. From Muslim Scouts in Wales to French Scouts in Syria to Girl Guides in colonial Kenya, Scouting has responded to the challenges of international expansion and transformed itself to address cultural, political and social diversity. Scouting Frontiers focuses particularly on the intersections between Scouting’s origins and its transformations over the last century as it faced frontiers of nation, empire, religion, race, class, and gender.

Boy Scouts of America Official Handbook
Author: Ernest Seton
Publisher: Createspace Independent Publishing Platform
ISBN: 9781986847933
Category :
Languages : en
Pages : 204
Book Description
Please note This is NOT the current edition of the BSA Handbook. It is a reprint of an historical edition of the BSA Handbook. For the first time, we are pleased to present this facsimile copy of the 1910 Original Edition of the Boy Scouts of America Official Handbook! Written primarily by Ernest Thompson Seton, with sections added from Lieutenant General Sir Robert Baden-Powell's "Scouting for Boys" and "Aids to Scouting." The 1910 Original Edition is a milestone in the history of the Boy Scouts of America. Published only from July 1910 to March 1911, this short-lived BSA Handbook was cobbled together using material from Seton's earlier work "The Birch Bark Roll" and then fused with Baden-Powell's Boy Scouts concept. Always meant as a temporary handbook until a proper one could be written and published, the 1910 Original Edition is super interesting and contains a wealth of woodsman's lore and military scouting techniques and training which do not appear in later editions of the BSA Handbooks. Many expertss consider this book to be quite a useful backwoods survival manual, and it definitely has appeal to the modern "classic camping" movement. The content of this edition is presented exactly as per the original, with the same page count, illustrations and table of contents. It's the original text exactly as it was presented in 1910 without some modern "expert" analysis or introduction. Today's reader can make up their own mind by actually reading the book. A perfect gift for the classic camping enthusiast, old Eagle Scout or the young Indiana Jones in your life. With all original illustrations, this new paperback replica edition brings this exceptionally rare book to a 21st Century audience. Be sure to keep an eye out for our new editions of Baden-Powell's military and scouting books, which inlcude: Reconnaissance and Scouting (1884) - red leather cover Cavalry Instruction (1885) - red canvas cover Aids to Scouting - For N.-C.Os. & Men (1899) - red cover Scouting for Boys Part I (1908) - buff cover Scouting for Boys Part II (1908) - buff cover Scouting for Boys Part III (1908) - buff cover Scouting for Boys Part IV (1908) - buff cover Scouting for Boys Part V (1908) - buff cover Scouting for Boys Part VI (1908) - buff cover Scouting for Boys - All Parts (1908) - light blue covers Boy Scouts of America Official Handbook - Original Edition (1910) - khaki cover Aids to Scoutmastership (1919) - khaki cover
