| Summary | "The Social Work of the Salvation Army" by Edwin Gifford Lamb is a scholarly publication written in the early 20th century. This work focuses on the social aspects of the Salvation Army's efforts to aid the impoverished and marginalized populations, detailing various programs and initiatives established to address their needs. It seeks to analyze and document the unique ways in which the organization has implemented social work apart from its religious endeavors. At the start of this examination, the author outlines the historical context and motivations behind the establishment of the Salvation Army, founded by William Booth in the mid-19th century. Lamb emphasizes that the focus will remain on social interventions rather than religious practices. He shares insights gained from personal observations while visiting various Salvation Army institutions in major cities, both in the United States and England. The opening portion establishes a blueprint for understanding how the Salvation Army differentiated its social programs into several departments, detailing the organization's commitment to improving the lives of individuals through education and employment, thereby promoting a sense of dignity and empowerment.
