The Way of the Scout

Rating:
Summary: A hilarious book on the scout's psychological warfare.
Review: Brown is definitely not the best writer, but this book is delightful! The stories of the scout's psychological warfare are hilarious. I wanna be a scout! This is not a skills book but Tom Brown's stories about the Way of the Scout, which he now teaches at his tracker school.

Summary: All these skills are very attainable
Review: Like most of Tom Brown's books (especially The Journey, The Vision, and The Quest), there is a wealth of information between the lines. While The Way Of The Scout is not a blow-by-blow how-to book like Awakening Spirits was, it gives insights on the world that is the scout's. The skills are within access of anyone who wants to learn them, but more importantly, the mentality of the scout is the true changer of people.

The scout always put those other than him/herself first. This also extends to the environment, the surroundings. Will taking something from the land in the end benefit it? How can I help those who are depending on me? The scout was a supreme naturalist, healer, tracker, hunter, and protector. How many non-scouts can say that?

Anyone reading this can become a scout. It's also a level I hope to attain one day, and am planning on attending the Scout class offered by Tom Brown's school in the near future.

Summary: essential reading
Review: This book is especially pertinent in the wake of the Attack on America. America is and has been very asleep and very unaware. Trained in the ways of the Mohark Scout and Warrior, Tom Brown Jr. literally teaches us how to increase our awareness and how to pay attention to what is happening all around us. This book will show the way on how we will win this new War.

Summary: Agree with the Casteneda comparison
Review: though what I think of Casteneda is another story.

All about Brown said in that review being true, this was still a fascinating read with insight to a more humble, thoughtful and grounded spirituality then all that Casteneda psychedelic pretentiousness. Brown's own shortcomings are easily separated from the message, which is simply about living as one with the earth, without ego.
