Booth borrowed Stanley’s title and turned it inward: the darkest England of the homeless, the out-of-work, the prisoner and the prostitute, counted at a tenth of the population. The second half is a detailed scheme — city colony, farm colony, overseas colony — that the Salvation Army then set about building.
