Robert Baden-Powell was the man who founded the Scouting movement. He had a great military career. He got his training in India and Africa. Robert Powell was an officer in the war between the British and the Boers* in South Africa. Here he became famous because he held a key town Mafeking for 217 days against a big enemy force. He stood until another army group broke through the Boer lines. And the army group helped him and his men.
Baden Powell came home to England as the greatest hero of the Boer war. He decided to use his fame and to help British boys to become better men.
He developed his ideas. He based them on his own experiences. Then he tried them with a group of boys. He established the first Boy Scout camp in 1907. Then he published the book “Scouting for boys”. Thousands of boys bought it and decided to become Scouts. Soon Scouting spread in England and around the world.
