Synopsis

Catherine Booth: A Sketch is a biographical book written by Colonel Mildred Duff that provides a comprehensive account of the life and work of Catherine Booth, the co-founder of The Salvation Army. The book details Catherine's early life, her marriage to William Booth, and their shared mission to serve the poor and marginalized in Victorian England. The author explores Catherine's role in shaping The Salvation Army's principles and practices, including her advocacy for women's rights and her commitment to social justice. The book also examines Catherine's personal struggles and challenges, including her battle with ill health and her efforts to balance her public ministry with her responsibilities as a wife and mother. Through historical research and personal anecdotes, Colonel Duff offers a vivid portrait of Catherine Booth as a visionary leader, a compassionate advocate, and a devoted follower of Christ. This book is a must-read for anyone interested in the history of The Salvation Army or the life of Catherine Booth.Extravagance and waste of every kind she abhorred, and had she not been so careful in planning and arranging, her time and money would again and again have run short. The sewing, mending, and housekeeping needed for a family of little children when means are scarce would have been burden enough for most mothers. But besides this came her own letter-writing, preparing for her Meetings, and also the hours she spent consulting and advising The General, whose voice, 'Here, Kate, ' would call her from the nursery or kitchen to help him decide some important question.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations. Because we believe this work is culturally important, we have made it available as part of our commitment for protecting, preserving, and promoting the world's literature in affordable, high quality, modern editions, that are true to their original work
