Ninety-nine days later, after one of the most daring journeys in American history, John Wesley Powell emerged from the Grand Canyon to become a contemporary American hero. In the following years Powell led several geological and ethnological explorations in Arizona and Utah under the auspices of the Smithsonian Institution.
Lord Baden Powell (1857-1941) was a British general and founder of the modern Scouting movement. He studied at Charterhouse school and served in the British army from 1876 -1910. He became a national hero during the Boer war of 1899-1900 when, with a small garrison, he commanded the defence of Mafeking. It was during the Boer war that Baden Powell wrote down a guide to Scouting.
