'Leadership in The Salvation Army' is a review and analysis of
Salvation Army history, focused on the process of clericalisation.
The Army provides a case study of the way in which renewal
movements in the church institutionalise. Their leadership roles,
initially merely functional and based on the principle of the
'priesthood of all believers', begin to assume greater status. the
adoption of the term 'ordination' for the commissioning of The
Salvation Army's officers in 1978, a hundred years after its
founding, illustrates this tendency. The Salvation Army's
ecclesiology has been essentially pragmatic and has developed in
comparative isolation from the wider church, perhaps with a greater
role being played by sociological processes than by theological
reflection in its development. The Army continues to exhibit a
tension between its theology, which supports equality of status,
and its military structure, which works against equality, and both
schools of thought flourish within its ranks.

Harold Hill's book is a unique collection of drawings published for the first time in this form. The illustrations are supplemented by text often taken from observing notes at the telescope. Astronomical drawing still has an important place alongside photography in the same way that photography has not supplanted the artist in the field of botany and ornithology. Indeed, because of movements in the Earth's atmosphere, astronomical images tend to shimmer even under the best possible conditions; drawings constructed by an artist who takes advantage of the fleeting moments of perfect vision are often more detailed than photographs. No one can fail to be impressed by the beauty and artistry of this work and, for the initiated, the accuracy and attention to detail is remarkable.
