 | | His father, Reverend Harry Baden-Powell died when he was three, and he was raised by his mother, Henrietta Grace, a strong woman determined her children would succeed, of whom he would say in 1933, "The whole secret of my getting on lay with my mother." |
 | | After attending Rose Hill School, Tunbridge Wells, Baden-Powell was awarded a scholarship to Charterhouse public school. |
 | | While on a visit to Charterhouse, his old public school, he stayed with an old friend, A. Tod, a bachelor teacher and housemaster who had taken large numbers of nude photographs of his pupils as part of a photographic record of public school life. |
