Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from William Booth: The General of the Salvation Army "Some men," it has been said, "are born great others achieve greatness, while others have greatness thrust upon them" General Booth belongs to those who have in the teeth of adverse circumstances, "achieved greatness." He needs no introduction; he requires no apology. Others may have a greater reputation within the borders of their own nation. We know of none in modern days whose name, while still living has become to such a degree a household word in every nation as a universal benefactor of mankind. Indeed, no nation can justly claim him as its own. He is the universal property of all. Wherever the poor man toils to earn his daily bread, wherever the submerged masses of the world send forth their piteous wail of heart ache on God´s air, wherever the sins and miseries of humanity have reached the utmost limits of endurance, the giant stride of this modern Apostle of Hope and Faith and Hard Work looms on the horizon, leaving footprints of help and happiness behind. Barriers that have heretofore seemed impervious to the advance alike of Science of Philosophy and Statesmanship - fortresses of Vice and Crime, of Poverty and Despair, against which the combined forces of Christendom have waged an almost hopeless war - have yielded before the assaults of the host of men and women warriors, who have sprung to their feet at the bidding of this Prophet of the Poor to take part in his glorious Crusade.
