Product Description
Product Description
A highly original biography of Baden-Powell, founder of the Scout Movement, with a fascinating account of the Scout Movement during his lifetime. This biography of Baden-Powell is the first for many years. It contains a foreword by the current Lord Baden-Powell, and has over 100 photographs - many are unofficial photographs that capture the real spirit of the time, indeed some are previously unpublished. Written by Steven Harris, the author of four other books on the Scout Movement, this 'Quirky Biography' is written entirely independently of the Scout Association, thus providing a refreshingly objective and honest account of Baden-Powell and his Movement. Deliberately lighter in style and content than earlier BP biographies, Steven Harris's book looks for the unusual, the many coincidences; and provides information in a clever range of styles. Being the most recent and up-to-date book of its kind to be published in the year of the Scout Movement's centenary, it is an absolute must for past and present members of the Movement, and all those interested in youth, 20th century icons, and social history.
