Customer Reviews

Great source for Rockwell

Rockwell is famous for his Post covers, but he also did extensive work for Boys Life and the Scouts. The Scouts and Rockwell are a perfect match for each other. It's hard to find better Rockwell-ian Americana than what this book covers.

beautiful book

It's a beautiful book, especially for those who are into scouting. It is a great keepsake book.

An excellent book about Norman Rockwell's support of the BSA

The book gives a brief history of Norman Rockwell's connection with Scouting and is one of the few, if not only, complete book of all of his Boy Scout works. "Green Bar Bill" Hillcourt does an excellent job of telling the story and how Norman Rockwell told the Scouting Story. A must for all Scouter's libraries.
