Description:In 1909 Sir Robert Baden-Powell's rally of boy scouts at the crystal palace was joined by 2,000 'Girl Scouts'. In an age where single sex education and heavy chaperoning until marriage was the norm, Sir Robert Baden-Powell recognised that a separate organisation for girls was necessary, and his sister 'Agnes was seen to be the person to lead it'. Agnes Baden-Powell, The story of the first Girl Guide is the first ever biography of the extraordinary, and often overlooked, creator of the guiding movement.

Interspersed with the recollections of those who met her, Agnes Baden-Powell, The story of the first Girl Guide presents the vivid and fascinating history of a life riddled with challenges.
