When William Booth was 13 years old, he faced a significant turning point in his life after experiencing the death of his father, which left his family in financial distress. This hardship led him to leave school and work as an apprentice to a pawnbroker in Nottingham. During this time, he became deeply aware of the struggles of the poor and marginalized, igniting his passion for social reform and eventually leading him to found the Salvation Army. This experience fundamentally shaped his commitment to helping those in need throughout his life.

What did William Duke of Normandy have to do with the Hundred Years War?

He didn't. The Hundred Years War happened in the 14th and 15th centuries. The only William Duke of Normandy I know of was the guy who fought the battle of Hastings against Harold Godwinson in 1066. Admittedly William did technically cause the Hundred Years War as without him conquering England it would never have had lands in France and the wars, if any, would not have been so long.
