Scouting for Girls, Official Handbook of the Girl Scouts: The Original 1920 Girl Scout Handbook
Average rating
4 out of 5
Based on 62 Ratings and 9 Reviews

Book Description
"How did Scouting come to be used by girls?" That is what I have been asked. Well, it was this way. In the beginning I had used Scouting—that is, wood craft, handiness, and cheery helpfulness—as a means for training young soldiers when they first joined the army, to help them become handy, capable men and able to hold their own with anyone instead of being mere drilled machines.
