This thrilling set of Boy Scouts tales are perfect for telling on a starry night amid the crackle and warm glow of a campfire.
A classic first published in the 1920s, this book relays many of the best stories from within the scouting tradition. Vividly written and highly imaginative, the topics in this superb compilation range from the spooky and ghostly to the adventurous and wondrous. Many have a moral aspect which corresponds with the philosophy of the scouts as an organisation.
Written with the intention to help young boy scouts during their development of wilderness skills, The Boy Scouts Book of Campfire Stories aren't for the faint of heart. The author Franklin K. Mathiews was the Chief Librarian of the American Boy Scouts, who would emphasise the hard work of physical and mental growth all scouts must aspire to.
Although written many years ago, the stories in this compilation are of an excellent quality. Filled with vivid descriptions and exciting narratives, these tales make for perfect reading in the depths of night against the glow of a roaring campfire.
