The Boy Scouts of America was founded in 1910 and has grown to be one of the largest youth organizations in the world, with 2.7 million members. Scouts of various types have been a standard feature of young adult literature for generations — but one of the earliest kicked off in 1913. The "Boy Scouts" series by "Herbert Carter" (a pseudonym for author St. George Rathborne, who wrote the whole series with the exception of volume 9) ran for 12 volumes. It follows scouts through adventures with their local troop and then for the last few volumes embroils them in World War I action. Included are:
THE BOY SCOUTS FIRST CAMP FIRE
THE BOY SCOUTS ON THE BLUE RIDGE
THE BOY SCOUTS ON THE TRAIL
THE BOY SCOUTS IN THE MAINE WOODS
THE BOY SCOUTS THROUGH THE BIG TIMBER
THE BOY SCOUTS IN THE ROCKIES
THE BOY SCOUTS ON STURGEON ISLAND
THE BOY SCOUTS DOWN IN DIXIE
THE BOY SCOUTS AT THE BATTLE OF SARATOGA
