This book has some shelf wear and a small stain on the back cover (check the photos) but we don’t think this copy has ever been opened and read. The Royal Rangers were a Boy Scout style organization sponsored by Christian churches. We don’t know if it was a particular denomination or not, but it’s late and we don’t want to Google it right now. Maybe later. They appear to have a much stronger military slant to their organization than the Boy Scouts did. This book is quite the collectors item. Take a look at the prices being asked on Amazon and eBay! And most of those copies are really beat up! We’ll offer it to you all for $25 and see how long it takes someone to nab it. ISBN#0-88243-683-X (Don’t know why Pango doesn’t have means to enter the X)
