Publisher's Description of Hallelujah Lass (Daughters of the Faith)
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. The Hallelujah Lass tells the story of how 16-year-old Eliza traveled from England to pioneer the work of the Salvation Army in the United States.
This well-written series introduces girls of today with godly young women of the past in a well-crafted blend of fact and historical fiction. Although each of these girls endured hardships that we rarely encounter today, their strong faith in God saw them through and enabled them to accomplish great things as well. Because their stories are true, and the focus is on a girl or young woman (a minority in most historical biographies!), this inspiring series introduces girls to solid role models they've probably never even heard of and reminds readers of the things we can accomplish and difficulties we can survive by looking to God for help. As a bonus, each story also is set in a rich, historical backdrop that will enrich the reader's appreciation for history. A glossary is included for less familiar, or antiquated words. - Jess
