Description
In 1929 a constitutional storm that had long been gathering suddenly burst, sweeping from office General Bramwell Booth, the son and successor to William Booth, Founder of The Salvation Army.
So traumatic was this event that for many years '1929' – for that is how it was known – was only talked of in hushed tones in Army circles. The telling of what happened was left to those outside the Army family.
Now after more than 80 years the full story of the crisis, with all its astonishing twists and turns, is set out by General John Larsson (Retired). In drafting this account, John Larsson has had access to hitherto unpublished material, much of it in the Army's heritage centres around the world.
