Blood and Fire, Tsar and Commissar : the Salvation Army in Russia, 19071923 (Studies in Christian History and Thought) Reprint edition

Blood and Fire, Tsar and Commissar examines the Salvation Army's first attempt to establish itself in Russia during the early decades of the twentieth century. It is a stirring story of faith, determination and endurance of a would-be-law-abiding organization struggling (despite police raids, death by epidemic and other catastrophes) to work in a place where, prior to the revolutions of 1917, it did not officially exist.
