BSA Norman Rockwell's Boy Scouts of America Details
Since the beginning of the Scouting movement in America 100 years ago, events have been recorded in paintings and drawings by an official artist. Remarkably, there have been just two official artists in all that time: Norman Rockwell and Joseph Csatari. Through brushstrokes of oil paint on canvas, the artists chronicle the history of Scouting in America - from campouts, hikes, and pinewood derby races to the Scouts public service initiatives throughout their long history. Their artwork celebrates the boyhood joys of Scouting whilst illustrating a code of honor and ideals that has shaped generations of young men.
Reviews
Being a Eagle Scout (class of 1973), I've been looking for a book with Norman Rockwell's art of the Boy Scouts.Mr. Rockwell is my favorite artist.Now Mr Csatari (Norman Rockwell's successor) has put together a fantasticchronicle of the B.S.A. history in art. Anyone who wants it all in one book.This is it! nowhere else to go.Amazon is the place to find books like these.With the 100th anniversary of the Boy Scouts what better time to buy this book.Anyone who has put the Scout uniformon will remember the times in these pictures. As soon as I received my book, I read it all the way through without putting it down.All in all,it's a great bookto have.
