Very interesting.

This was an idea present for my great grandson because he is a cub scout, and this book has lots of information about tasks that he needs to do to gain his badges.

A works of pure genius.

One of the best selling books in the English language. Its much more than that. If you like you can drone on about Imperialism etc like some who reads the Guardian and eats Tofu! Or you can accept what this book has spawned the greatest youth movement the world has ever seen. Yes, its dated. Yes, it mentions masturbation and Yes, it mentions cold showers but forget that. If you weren't in the Scouts then more fool you but just remember that Neil Armstrong and most of the other people who walked on the moon were. So were all the members of Apollo 13. As were Barack Obama, Tony Blair, David Beckham, Richard Hammond, Paul McCartney & John F Kennedy plus many others.

So, buy the book and accept its brilliance.Read full review...
