In Darkest England and The Way Out Summary
| Some seven years ago a great outcry was made concerning the Housing of the Poor. Much was said, and rightly said--it could not be said too strongly--concerning the disease-breeding, manhood-destroying character of many of the tenements in which the poor herd in our large cities. But there is a depth below that of the dweller in the slums. It is that of the dweller in the street. |

| The progress of The Salvation Army in its work amongst the poor and lost of many lands has compelled me to face the problems which an more or less hopefully considered in the following pages. The grim necessities of a huge Campaign carried on for many years against the evils which lie at the root of all the miseries of modern life, attacked in a thousand and one forms by a thousand and one lieutenants, have led me step by step to contemplate as a possible solution of at least some of those problems the Scheme of social Selection and Salvation which I have here set forth. |

William Booth, founder of The Salvation Army, was born in Nottingham, England, in 1829. From his earliest years, Booth was no stranger to poverty. He was just fourteen when his father died, leaving William to struggle to provide for his family. Working as a pawnbroker he developed a compassion for the poor and a hatred of poverty. He could not understand, if God was so unconditional in his love, why the lower classes of English society were not accepted as equals in the church. |
