This meticulously researched yet engaging book traces The Salvation Army's history of service from its beginnings in Victorian England to its present-day mission in all parts of the world. / A phenomenal religious movement, acclaimed for its compassionate service, The Salvation Army now works in no fewer than 118 countries, yet no contemporary book has chronicled this high-profile organization - until now. Henry Gariepy's well-written, comprehensive account effectively fills that gap.
Henry Gariepy (1930-2010) served as a writer and editor for the Salvation Army. In his last 15 years of active officer service, he held the role of National Editor in Chief and Literary Secretary at the organization's US headquarters. He was the author of twenty-nine books and a contributor to forty more. He also taught courses at the Salvation Army's Officer Training College. In 2007, Gariepy was awarded the Salvation Army's highest honor, Order of the Founder.
