The storyline of the book is based on a life of Commander Evangeline Booth, who has been the source, the inspiration, the guide of this story. The book is a great account of the many lives that the Salvation Army lassies touched and led to the Lord. Unlike the most of Grace Livingston Hill's book this one does not have a romantic plot and rather is focused on a relationship between the U.S. Army and the Salvation Army during WWI.

This explains why their dear forms loomed up in the fog and the rain, in the hours of the night, on the roads, under shell fire, serving coffee and doughnuts.
This is how it was they were with them on the long dreary marches, with a smile and a song and a word of cheer.
