THE LEGACY REVEALED is is a much-extended edition of Fighting for the Lord THE LEGACY, a history of the Danish Staff Band of The Salvation Army, now covering almost 15 years of intense thorough research, giving a much deeper and broader look into this band's amazing history. It also incorporates more biographical information and enlightens the context more, since that has been requested by many. 
Tracing down the story of the Danish Staff Band has involved hard detective work, tracking down documentation that have gone missing and discovered that others remain lost or unaccounted for. Hunted down remaining extracts of sometimes unexpected, disappeared documents, and been digging out hundreds of forgotten memoires through diaries, and as a result of the previous book, many people from around the world has come forward with information from their private archives.
The mission for the Staff Band, established in 1890, was to set the pattern for Salvation Army bands in Denmark, be the standard of reference and to spread the Gospel through music and example. Up to 11 months of the year was spent travelling, often with five engagements every day and the band campaigned in Denmark, Sweden, Finland, Estonia, Latvia, Germany and England. Through innovative programs the band showed ability to adapt to an ever-changing context. Members have included Erik Leidzén and Emil Söderström, both hallmark names in the brass band world. The story of this remarkable band is fascinating, inspiring, encouraging and sometimes almost unbelievable.
