Eva Burrows - A Biography

  • By Wendy Green
  • 184 pages.
  • Published 1988, Marshall Pickering
Eva Burrows was elected General of The Salvation Army in May 1986. The world's press had a field day. A woman leader? Moreover, she was a woman leader at a time when the established Church couldn't find a place for women in their church leadership.

General Burrows began her work with the avowed intention simply 'getting things done'. The eighth of nine children in a Salvationist family, she always considered spreading the Gospel and leading by example more important than abstract debate. Even a heart attack seven years ago could not repress 'effervescent Eva'.

Wendy Green's portrait of Eva Burrows is lively and uplifting, the story of a remarkable woman in the service of Christ.
