A Varied Life is a memoir written by Thomas Edward Gordon, chronicling his experiences as a military and civil servant, as well as his pursuits in sports and travel across India, Central Asia, and Persia. The book covers the period between 1849 and 1902, providing a detailed account of his life and adventures during this time. Gordon served in various military campaigns, including the Indian Mutiny, and held several important civil service positions in India. He also had a passion for sports, particularly polo and hunting, and traveled extensively throughout the region, exploring new territories and encountering different cultures. The book is a fascinating insight into the life of a British colonial administrator during the height of the British Empire, and provides a unique perspective on the history and culture of India, Central Asia, and Persia during this period. Published in 1906, A Varied Life is a valuable historical document that offers a glimpse into a bygone era.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
