After two decades of conflict, the war is finally over. The English should be enjoying the spoils of victory, but Thomas Blackstone is still fighting.

The French king may have capitulated, signed a treaty & ceded lands, but the warlords who have been fighting over the carcass of his kingdom are in no mind to honour a defeated Kings promises. If the English want their prize, theyll have to fight for it: Thomas Blackstone will have to fight for it.

By siege & skirmish, Blackstone pushes deep into the contested territories. But every bloody victory only tightens the snare around his neck. Someone has a score to settle with the scar-faced Englishman. Peace, Blackstone will discover, can be more lethal than war.

Scouting has been in existence since 1907, offering children & young adults over 100 years of adventure, Jamborees, summer camps, badges, scarves & gang shows. The collection of the badges has always been the backbone of the movement, & back in 1914 a book was published that gathered together all of the legendary badges & gave instruction on how to pass them. This is a celebratory edition of that 1914 classic, showing how this much-loved institution has grown & evolved. This truly fascinating book was the official manual used by Scouts to learn these subjects, & by Scout leaders to teach them. This is an authentic dangerous book for boys & takes us back to a distant time before TVs & home computers, when children were encouraged to be active & to 'get out into the open air' whenever they could; a time when it was important to be able to make things &, when they broke, repair them. It is a fascinating historical document that also reveals the morality of an era when readers were entreated to be 'clean in thought, word & deed', & 'refrain from spitting in omnibuses.' ...

The original 'self-instructor' of the Boy Scout Movement, Scouting for Boys (1908) is probably the most influential manual for youth ever published. Yet it is an extraordinary hodge-podge of jingoist lore, tracker legend, extracts from adventure fiction, & autobiographical writing which reveals the multiple anxieties of its author & time. ...
