booksBoy Scouts Handbook - First Edition
The first edition. A hodgepodge perhaps chiefly of interest in what is included. Games. Short history and civics lessons. Discussions of wildlife and tracking. First aid. How to earn badges.
Some articles show that science has marched on from the day.
Sayings from Indians are invariably in crude English, but also invariably are to teach wise things to the boys.
I noted that in the fire section, they discussed the danger of wildfires, but didn't mention that first of all, you ensure you build your fire on bare earth. Anything burnable will carry the fire away, and roots are particularly dangerous. So, health and safety information may also be out of date.
