EDITORS COMMENTS
This striking portrait captures Evangeline Booth, the dynamic and charismatic daughter of Salvation Army founder William Booth, during her 1919 lecture tour entitled "The Secret of the Salvation Army's Success." Evangeline Booth, dressed in her distinctive Salvation Army uniform with its iconic cap, emerged as a prominent figurehead for the organization during the tumultuous period of the First World War and its aftermath. The 1910s were a pivotal time for the Salvation Army, as it adapted to the challenges of the war and the changing social landscape. Booth's lecture tours played a crucial role in raising awareness and funds for the organization's vital work, particularly in providing essential services to soldiers and civilians affected by the conflict. Ira L Hill expertly captured the intensity and determination in Booth's gaze, conveying her unwavering commitment to the Salvation Army's mission. The portrait, taken during the post-war era, underscores the resilience and adaptability of the organization in the face of adversity. The photograph offers a unique glimpse into the life of a remarkable woman who dedicated her life to serving others, and the enduring legacy of the Salvation Army she helped build. This powerful image serves as a testament to the transformative impact of faith and the unwavering spirit of those who answered the call to serve during a time of great need.
