Scouting for Filipino Boys by the Boy Scouts of the Philippines

Scouting for Filipino Boys, Volume 1 (1949), is the first official handbook produced by the newly independent Boy Scouts of the Philippines, a project twice interrupted by war and occupation before finally reaching print. This copy was inscribed in July 1950 by Guillermo "Willie" Padolina, who would go on to serve as National Scout Director of the BSP and Regional Executive Commissioner of the Far East Scout Region of the World Scout Bureau.
