1910 original edition Handbook[edit]

The first Official Handbook, subtitled A Handbook of Woodcraft, Scouting, and Life-craft was published from July 1910 until March 1911 and appeared in eight distinct variations. It was written by Ernest Seton and drew greatly on Baden-Powell's Scouting for Boys, it included information on the organization of Scouting, signs and signaling, and camping, as well as Scouting games and a description of several Scouting honours. Notably, this book did not place emphasis on first aid, knife and axe use, or map and compass work, as later editions would. Because this edition was intended solely as a temporary guide until an authoritative handbook could be made, it is now known as the 1910 Original Edition Handbook. The cover art was an illustration by Baden-Powell. There were about 28,000 copies printed, not 68,900 as previously thought.^[1][2]

First edition[edit]

The Official Handbook for Boys was published in June 1911.^[1] In this edition, the American Scouting program was standardized, albeit with many omissions and mistakes (cf. external links). As with the Original Edition, many now-standard Scouting skills were passed over, including knife and axe use and map and compass work.

The book describes many Scout-like virtues and qualifications. After a lengthy section on what a Scout should know, including chivalry, history, and national issues, it is noted that 'in short, to be a good Scout is to be a well-developed, well-informed boy.'^[3]

Scouts BSA[edit]

The Boy Scouting program began admitting girls in 2019 and was renamed to Scouts BSA. The handbook was renamed to the Scouts BSA Handbook. It is available in two editions with identical content but one with photos of boys and one of girls.
