In the groundbreaking tradition of his award-winning Monster and Bad Boy: A Memoir, Walter Dean Myers fashions a highly readable, powerful novel about the rules for success for young men, especially those navigating coming of age while Black. Share this book in the classroom, in a father-son reading group, or as a summer reading (or anytime) choice that's likely to spark conversation and be a favorite. "When the proprietor of a Harlem barbershop takes over as the court-appointed mentor for two troubled teenagers, he conveys the message that the future is built not only on hard work but on sustaining dreams as well." (Smithsonian magazine). In his introduction to Handbook for Boys, Walter Dean Myers wrote: "I know as a troubled teenager I would have loved to have a neighborhood barbershop to sit in and a group of worldly and knowledgeable men to counsel me. Thinking about this was my motivation in writing this book, hoping it will be, in the least, a jumping-off point for many interesting conversations about success."

"A scout must always be prepared at any moment to do his duty, and to face danger in order to help his fellow-men." A startling amalgam of Zulu war-cry and imperial and urban myth, of borrowed tips on health and hygiene, and object lessons in woodcraft, Robert Baden-Powell's Scouting for Boys (1908) is the original blueprint and 'self-instructor' of the Boy Scout Movement. One of the all-time bestsellers in the English-speaking world, this primer of 'yarns and pictures' constitutes probably the most influential manual for youth ever published. Yet the book is at the same time a roughly composed hodge-podge of jingoist lore and tracker legend, padded with lengthy quotations from adventure fiction and Baden-Powell's own autobiography, and seamed through with the multiple anxieties of its time: fears of degeneration, concerns about masculinity and self-restraint, and invasion paranoia. Elleke Boehmer's edition of Scouting for Boys reprints the original text and illustrations, and her fine introduction investigates a book that has been cited as an authority by militarists and pacifists, capitalists and environmentalists alike.

Published in 1911, "Boy Scouts Handbook: The First Edition", compiled by the Boy Scouts of America, is the immensely popular and widely influential guide for young boys entering the organization. The first edition of the "Handbook" appeared a year after the Boy Scouts were formed in 1910 and offered practical advice on all manner of outdoor activities, including swimming, camping, hiking, sailing, woodcrafting, and outdoor survival techniques. The "Handbook" also explained how the Boy Scout organization worked and provided direction on how Scouts should be well-rounded, informed, chivalrous, resourceful, and honorable. While some of the information and advice reflects the time in which the book was written and the scientific knowledge available, the first edition of the "Handbook" endures as a helpful and detailed guide for many skills that have changed little over the past century, such as horseback riding, building a fire, and identifying trees and plant life that can aid in outdoor survival. The Boy Scouts had a profound influence on generations of young men who went on to become national heroes, presidents, and leading scientific figures and the "Boy Scouts Handbook: The First Edition" remains a valuable resource for understanding the organization and its goals. This edition is printed on premium acid-free paper.
