History

Colonel J. S. Wilson had been the Director of Training of The Boy Scouts Association, in that capacity he had worked with Scout associations from many countries.

Upon the 50th anniversary of World Scouting in 1957, Wilson took his research notes gathered on a six-year world tour reviewing the world's Scout organizations, culminating in a five-month tour of Asia in October 1952, and authored the publication of the first edition of Scouting Round the World.
