Synopsis

Former Scout Richard Bennett chronicles the history and stories of BSA Troop 826, a ragtag collection of neighborhood boys from Irving, Texas, who quickly grew up in the North Texas area, and needed the direction provided by Scoutmaster Warren Street and other adult volunteers. Bumps, bruises, and life lessons were the order of the day in the North Texas troop. No cell phones, video games, air conditioning, or televisions allowed! Boy vs Nature, first-time experiences away from the familiarity of home, success stories as well as the not-so-successful; it's all here. See what can happen when young men are given an opportunity to advance in life on the practice field known as 'Scouting.'

A propos du livre

À propos de l'auteur

Richard Joseph Bennett (b. 1957) is the author and illustrator of "Everything I Need to Know I Learned in Boy Scouts: The Story of Troop 826". He has spent all of his life in the North Texas area, growing up in Irving, Texas, and being involved with the Boy Scouts there during the 1960's. Looking back over his life he decided that these were some of the happiest days of his youth and wished to share his adventures and observations with others, especially Scouts and their parents. Mr. Bennett is retired from the Air Force Reserves and works with the U.S. Postal Service as a Letter Carrier in his home town. He writes in his spare time for fun and enjoyment, and has plenty of time to think what he'd care to pen while walking his route. He has just finished the book "Faith and Labor", which is an examination of a Texas Public High School, MacArthur High, and has recently added a work of fiction, "The Lovely Chocolate Mob", to Amazon.com and Kindle. Also, watch for the short story, "Mike, the Bike, and the Great Big Fight," soon to be available through Kindle.
