Booknews

Reprint of the Scribner edition of 1914 with hundreds of pen and ink drawings. A charming anachronism (the Forest Service would frown on such prodigal use of trees and their branches). Beard was a founder of Boy Scouts of America. Annotation c. Book News, Inc., Portland, OR (booknews.com)
