The Hallelujah Lass

A Story based on the Life of Salvation Army Pioneer Eliza Shirley
By Wendy Lawton

As a teenager growing up in nineteenth-century England, Eliza Shirley was the picture of a proper young lady. She loved crinolines, kid-leather gloves, and her best friend, Beck. But Eliza longed for more than an ordinary, middle-class life.

When a group of Hallelujah Lassies marches into Coventry with a ragtag bunch of followers, singing and banging tabourines, even the ensuing riots cannot keep Eliza away. She knows, at last, that this is the work God has prepared for her. And she is ready, no matter what the cost. Even if it means singlehandedly taking this "Salvation Army" across the sea - to America.
