Scouting for Boys
Book • 1908
Published in six fortnightly installments from January to March 1908, 'Scouting for Boys' was written by Robert Baden-Powell specifically for young men.

It includes the Scout Oath, Scout Law, honors, and games for youth, and was designed to be affordable and accessible to many boys.
The book's success led to the rapid formation of Boy Scout troops across Britain and eventually around the world.
