Catherine Booth

History & Biography

“Catherine Booth is rightly honored for the crucial role she played in shaping the Salvation Army and for her contribution to social reform and women's rights in the second half of the nineteenth century. Despite that recognition, in-depth, academic studies of her life and work have been thin. So, John Read's scholarly and eminently readable book is a very welcome volume. It deserves to be widely read.”

Following Rabbi Jesus

Christian Living

“For too long we have concentrated on the death of Jesus, neglecting his life; we have focused on his divinity, losing sight of his humanity; we have emphasized doctrine, forgetting his call to discipleship. The church and the world are the poorer for that. Phil Needham’s excellent book is part of a movement of the spirit to redress the balance. Read it carefully and prayerfully. It will inform your thinking and inspire your living.”
