Synopsis

Originally adapted from the British handbook written by Agnes Baden-Powell and Robert Baden-Powell, known for their work with the Boy Scout Association and the Girl Guide Association, How Girls Can Help Their Country was a guide for young Girl Scouts of America in 1913. The tenets of the Girl Scouts are honor, duty, loyalty, kindness, comradeship, purity, cheerfulness, and thriftiness. This handbook describes how girls can establish their own troop, uphold the Girl Scout tenets, and grow to be proper young women. It also outlines more concrete tasks such as camping, games, cooking, and first aid. This edition, written by W.J. Hoxie, was released for the 16th anniversary of the Girl Scouts' founding. W.J. Hoxie was a noted naturalist in Savannah, Georgia in 1913. She prepared the Girl Scout Handbook, How Girls Can Help Their Country, together with Juliette Gordon Low.

Présentation de l'éditeur

This book was originally published prior to 1923, and represents a reproduction of an important historical work, maintaining the same format as the original work. While some publishers have opted to apply OCR (optical character recognition) technology to the process, we believe this leads to sub-optimal results (frequent typographical errors, strange characters and confusing formatting) and does not adequately preserve the historical character of the original artifact. We believe this work is culturally important in its original archival form. While we strive to adequately clean and digitally enhance the original work, there are occasionally instances where imperfections such as blurred or missing pages, poor pictures or errant marks may have been introduced due to either the quality of the original work or the scanning process itself. Despite these occasional imperfections, we have brought it back into print as part of our ongoing global book preservation commitment, providing customers with access to the best possible historical reprints. We appreciate your understanding of these occasional imperfections, and sincerely hope you enjoy seeing the book in a format as close as possible to that intended by the original publisher.
