This is a small book or large pamphlet about Lord Baden-Powells first experimental Boy Scout Camp on Brownsea Island in Pool Harbor, southern England. It is thorough, listing all participants, activities and how it transpired.
The site is preserved today and it is possible to visit.
Great for understanding the early history of the Boy Scouting movement.
