Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: On a sizzling hot afternoon near the middle of August, in the year nineteen eleven, three boys dressed in the khaki uniform of the Boy Scouts of America stood on a lofty plateau near the British frontier, watching with anxious eyes the broken country to the south and west. "Nothing stirring yet!" Jack Bosworth said, turning to Pat Mack and Frank Shaw, his companions. "Ned and Jimmie may be in trouble somewhere. I wish we had waited and traveled with them." "Traveled with them!" repeated Frank Shaw. "We couldn't travel with them. We were fired-given the grand bounce-twenty-three sign. Ned seemed to want the space in the atmosphere we occupied at Missoula. Serve them good and right if they do get distributed over the scenery." "Never you mind about Ned Nestor and Jimmie McGraw," Pat Mack put in. "They can get along all right if someone isn't leading them by the hand. Suppose we fix up the camp and get ready for our eats?" The boys turned away from the lip of the cañon upon which they had been standing and busied themselves putting up shelter tents and unpacking provisions and camping tools, as they called their blankets and cooking vessels. They had passed the previous night in a sheltered valley lower down, sleeping on the ground, under the stars, and had breakfasted from the scanty stock of eatables carried in their haversacks. Early that morning a train of burros had landed their outfit at the end of a rough trail some distance below, and the boys, with long labor and patience, had carried it up to the plateau.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In the early years of the twentieth century, Americans began to recognize adolescence as a developmental phase distinct from both childhood and adulthood. This awareness, however, came fraught with anxiety about the debilitating effects of modern life on adolescents of both sexes. For boys, competitive sports as well as "primitive" outdoor activities offered by fledging organizations such as the Boy Scouts would enable them to combat the effeminacy of an overly civilized society. But for girls, the remedy wasn't quite so clear. Surprisingly, the "girl problem"?a crisis caused by the transition from a sheltered, family-centered Victorian childhood to modern adolescence where self-control and a strong democratic spirit were required of reliable citizens?was also solved by way of traditionally masculine, adventurous, outdoor activities, as practiced by the Girl Scouts, the Camp Fire Girls, and many other similar organizations. Susan A. Miller explores these girls' organizations that sprung up in the first half of the twentieth century from a socio-historical perspective, showing how the notions of uniform identity, civic duty, "primitive domesticity," and fitness shaped the formation of the modern girl.

This book was released on 2014-03-28 with total page 76 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Four Boy Scouts, of the Beaver Patrol, Chicago, were in camp on Moose river. They were all athletic young fellows, not far from seventeen years of age, and were dressed in the khaki uniform adopted by the Boy Scouts of America. If you take a map of the British Northwest Territories and look up Moose river, you will discover that it runs through nearly three hundred miles of wilderness, from Lake Missinale to Moose Bay. The reader will well understand, then, how far "Sandy" Green, Will Smith, George Benton and Tommy Gregory had traveled from civilization. The camp of the Boy Scouts was situated some fifty miles up the river from Moose Factory, a trading point famous in old Indian days for its adventurous spirits and its profits to the factors. Those who have read the preceding books of this series will doubtless remember the four Boy Scouts named above. Together they had visited the Pictured Rocks of Old Superior, the Everglades of Florida, and the great Continental Divide.
Download or read book Wings written by Lawrence Faulkner and published by . This book was released on 2008-04-01 with total page 184 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Shortly after the Boy Scouts organized an American version of the successful English program, local organizations called councils began to operate. Composed of progressive community leaders, they offered a framework for Scouting to offer its program to boys. Along the way, councils acquired property-through lease, donation, purchase or a combination of all three-for camping and other outdoor activities. Wings: The Story of Camp Westmoreland recounts the tale of the oldest continuously operational Boy Scout Camp in Alabama. Larry Faulkner, himself a former camper on the property, bases his story primarily on the memory of Scouts and their leaders who used the facility. Scouting began in the area in 1912. By the 1930s, Camp Westmoreland flourished as a popular summer facility. With the acquisition of Camp Jackson, near Scottsboro, Westmoreland went through a period of decline starting in 1979. In the 1990s, dedicated volunteers-including many former campers-worked to restore the property to usefulness. Faulkner's book recounts timeless stories of camp life at Westmoreland through an entertaining and enlightening view of Scouting in northwest Alabama demonstrating the positive impact the Boy Scouts provide in this area.
