‘Early one morning in May 1878 a tall bearded man, wearing a long yellow dressing gown and felt slippers, set off an explosion in his London bedroom.’
So begins chapter one of the latest book from the pen of John Larsson, which offers a fascinating insight into some of the most remarkable years in the history of The Salvation Army. Drawing on a series of ‘Rear-Mirror Views’ articles published in the UK Salvationist magazine, the book comprises 36 short chapters, each focusing on events or personalities crucial to the expansion of the Army in thirteen astonishing years of the late 19th century.

The Sensational Evangelist
The Trumpets Sound
‘Please can I come to the meeting?’
‘My God, who kissed me?’
