  • My Adventures as a Spy

    by Baron Robert Stephenson Smyth Baden-Powell Baden-Powell of Gilwell ...
    It has been difficult to write in peace-time on the delicate subject of spies and spying, but now that the war is in progress and the methods of those much abused gentry have been disclosed, there is no harm in going more fully into the question, and to relate some of my own personal experiences. Spies are like ghosts—people seem to have had a general feeling that there might be such things, but ... Read more

  • Scouting for Boys

    by Baron Robert Stephenson Smyth Baden-Powell Baden-Powell of Gilwell ...
    We had an example of how useful Boy Scouts can be on active service, when a corps of boys was formed in the defence of Mafeking, 1899-1900.

Nobody ever thought of its being attacked by an enemy any more than you would expect this town (or village) to be attacked—the thing was so improbable. ... Read more

    by Juliette Gordon Low, Agnes Baden-Powell, Baron Robert Stephenson Smyth Baden-Powell Baden-Powell of Gilwell ...
    Girl Scouts, like Boy Scouts, are found all over the world. When Sir Robert Baden-Powell formed the first troops of Boy Scouts, six thousand girls enrolled themselves, but, as Sir Robert's project did not include the admission of girls, he asked his sister, Miss Baden-Powell, to found a similar organization for girls, based on the Boy Scout laws, with activities and occupations properly adapted ...

  • Young Knights of the Empire: Their Code and Further Scout Yarns

    by Baron Robert Stephenson Smyth Baden-Powell Baden-Powell of Gilwell ...
    A Scout ought to know a little about most injuries and diseases, and to be able to treat them. In uncivilised countries the natives all look on a white man as a born doctor, and they bring you cases of every kind to deal with. When I was in Kashmir, a lad was brought to me who had just fallen down a steep bank. He was in great pain, and his friends and relatives were already considering him as ... Read more
