Written by Robert Baden-Powell, Lieutenant General in the British Army and founder of the international Scouting movement, Scouting for Boys is one of the most influential manuals for youth ever published. First printed in 1908, it remains an all-time bestseller in the English-speaking world, second only to the Bible.The original blueprint and "self-instructor" of the Boy Scout Movement, Scouting for Boys is a fascinating fusion of "yarns and pictures," an irresistible mixture of nationalistic narrative, tracker legend, and quotations from Baden-Powell's own autobiography and the popular adventure fiction of Rudyard Kipling, James Fenimore Cooper, and Alexander Dumas. The book provides practical advice on lighting fires, building boats and stalking animals, alongside proper Victorian-era education on chivalry and manners, self-discipline and improvement, and above all, good citizenship. Expounding upon the topics intrinsic to the life of a scout -- tracking, woodcraft, camp life, endurance, patriotism, and more -- this classic is essential for anyone interested in popular culture and the history of scouting and youth education. Ninety original diagrams and illustrations enhance the text.

What Can I Say
Format: Kindle
This is one of the most intriguing comic stories I have read in a long time. A disgraced superhero (kind of) and murder mystery. This book is definitely worth your time.

oddly religious
Format: Kindle
It was somewhat interesting but they really went into the whole religious thing a lot… it was kind of weird. Maybe it’s just cuz I’m not familiar with the source material.but really weird.

If Absolute Batman wasn’t running, THIS would be the best Batman story of the 2020s!
Format: Hardcover, Format: Hardcover
this is my 2nd time purchasing a hardcover Batman comic in my life (1st being Absolute Batman).
The art in this run by Matt Fraction is truly premium quality and this Batman suit from color and logo basement might be in my top 5 Batman suits of all time. I look forward to continuing to follow this story.

True Detective
Format: Kindle
Life long Marvel fan who has found his way to DC, and has been blown away! Mostly the Absolute books, but when Matt Fraction is writing I’m reading. Street level Bats at his best. The art is 10 outa 10. There is as much heart in here as crime fighting check it out.
