Summary:
Pub owners and their hired thugs are ready for William Booth and his ragtag followers when they come marching into London's East End. With clubs and rocks, the thugs are set to chase this preacher out of town for good. But Booth and his 'Salvation Army' are not dissuaded! Armed only with Bibles, musical instruments, and their faith in God, they march in to face their most dangerous opponents so far. Who will win the spiritual battle for the hurting souls of this forgotten corner of London?
