Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from The Short Life of Catherine Booth: The Mother of the Salvation Army My task is completed. Imperfectly? Alas, none could be more conscious of that fact than myself! I have longed unspeakably for inspirations pen to write the record of a life inspired, no matter whose the hand that held the pen! I have wept with disappointment as I have struggled to describe the indescribable! A thousand times, in the lonely solitude of my room, I have turned from pen to prayer, and then again from prayer to pen. My whole soul has yearned unspeakably to enshrine our Army Mother´s memory fittingly, and to enable her in these pages to live her life again. I have not criticised? No! I could not, for I loved. With the love of a son - the respect, the admiration, the enthusiasm of a disciple. For critical biography I have neither time nor taste. I have exaggerated? No! Inquire from those who knew her best - her family, her friends, the Army. I have sought to tell "the truth, the whole truth, and nothing but the truth"; to let facts and letters speak for themselves, and to surround the picture with but a framework of such explanations as have seemed necessary for the occasion. I claim for Mrs Booth infallibility? No! Only sanctified common sense. "Jesus Christ made unto her wisdom, righteousness, sanctification, and redemption." She made mistakes? Undoubtedly! But I have not found many to record. As a Mother - her family speak for her in the gates. As a Wife - her husband lives and testifies.
