vi NATURE STALKING FOR BOYS 



original edition of Scouting for Boys ; and there 

 is no doubt that the way in which Mr. Westell 

 presents the subject to his readers is one which 

 must make the subject, not only an interesting one 

 to the general reader, but equally interesting to 

 all Boy Scouts. 



The book should prove a valuable aid to Scouts 

 who are working for their Stalker's Badge, as it 

 will give many hints as to the way in which they 

 may utilise one or other of our alternative methods 

 of passing the tests for this badge. 



Wood-craft and Nature-craft are, perhaps, the 

 most interesting sections of our work, and a Scout 

 who will take the trouble to watch a few of the 

 smaller animals, who owe their very existence to 

 their methods of avoiding capture by their 

 enemies, whether animal or human, will obtain 

 the best possible teaching, namely, that of Nature 

 herself, in the great arts of taking cover and 

 adaptability to natural surroundings.
