Deafened by an  accident, \"Daisy\" married a dashing British aristocrat and moved to  England. But she was ultimately betrayed by her husband and  dissatisfied by the aimlessness of privileged life. Her search for a  greater purpose ended when she met Robert Baden-Powell, war hero,  adventurer, and founder of the Boy Scouts. Captivated with his program,  Daisy aimed to instill the same useful skills and moral values in young  girls-with an emphasis on fun. She imported the Boy Scouts' sister  organization, the Girl Guides, to Savannah in 1912. Rechristened the  Girl Scouts, it grew rapidly because of Juliette Low's unquenchable  determination and energetic, charismatic leadership.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eIn \u003ci\u003eJuliette Gordon Low\u003c\/i\u003e, Cordery paints a dynamic portrait of  an intriguing woman and a true pioneer whose work touched the lives of  millions of girls and women around the world.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Penguin Publishing Group","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47077069881584,"sku":"9781101560266","price":6.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0737\/7593\/9824\/files\/9781101560266_p0.jpg?v=1763688336","url":"https:\/\/shop-qa.barnesandnoble.com\/products\/9781101560266","provider":"Barnes \u0026 Noble (DEV)","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
