| Summary | "The Girl Scouts: Their History and Practice" by Juliette Low is a historical account written in the early 20th century. The book outlines the origins, objectives, and methods of the Girl Scouts organization, which was founded in the United States as a response to the Boy Scouts movement in England. It emphasizes the importance of character development, community service, and the role of activities that appeal to girls in fostering leadership and independence. The content focuses primarily on the establishment of the Girl Scouts, starting with its inception in 1912 and developing through its incorporation and expansion. It explains the foundational laws, promises, and standards of the organization, highlighting the significance of the patrol system in promoting cooperation and responsibility among members. Through varied, interest-driven activities, the Girl Scouts aim to equip girls with practical skills and a sense of duty to their communities. The book also explores the involvement of trained leaders and councils to support the unique needs of the girls, ultimately painting a picture of a nurturing environment that encourages personal growth and civic engagement.
