Writing in 1917 to the older boys of his movement, the founder of Scouting strings together camp-fire yarns on the Scout Law, chivalry and the knightly code he hoped boys would live by. Between the lessons come travel sketches of foreign Scouts, an Orient steamship, a Norwegian saeter, and practical advice on tracking and becoming a backwoodsman.
