Re - Mike Maricle's book list

Mike,

I dont think that Robert Baden Powell wrote a book called Sea Scouting for Boys.
I had never heard of it and I checked with a couple of friends in Britain also.

I have a copy of Handbook for Crew Leaders, Carl D.Lane, BSA, 1st Edition 1941,
second printing 1942.

Other Sea Scout books in English include -

United Kingdom -

Sea Scouting and Seamanship for Boys, W. Baden-Powell,
(James Brown & Son, Glasgow, 1912)
- reprinted (Brown Son & Ferguson, Glasgow, 1936)

(Wells Gardner, Darton & Co., Redhill, Surrey, 1912)
- 3rd Edition, revised by Tom Browne, 1952
Sea Scout Badge Book - (Brown, Son & Ferguson, early 1930s)
