All parts of the six | All parts of the six instalments in 1908 have the title ''Scouting for Boys'' in big capitals. With a listed price of '4d. net', it was affordable to many boys, many of whom would have been at work, as the school-leaving age was 14. Authorship is attributed thus: 'by B-P (Lieut. Gen. Baden Powell C.B.)' (sic). | ||
Most chapters start with hints to instructors. All chapters have [[campfire yarn]]s, appealing to boys, most contain sections with games and activities, and they close with recommendations for books to read.<ref name=rohrer>{{cite news | title = What would Baden-Powell do? | first = Finlo | last = Rohrer | work = BBC News Magazine | date = | Most chapters start with hints to instructors.
