4.9/5 (31688 ratings)

Description:Excerpt from Chinese Gordon: A Succinct Record of His LifeThe good fortune has never come to me to know General Gordon, and this little volume makes no pretence to be anything more than a compilation and an abridgment. There are two authoritative works on General Gordon's career - Dr. Andrew Wilson's Ever Victorious Army, and Mr. Birkbeck Hill's Colonel Gor don in Central Africa; which last has a special value, consisting as it does for the most part of General Gordon's own letters to rela tives and friends, with admirably written link ing chapters by Mr. Hill. I have acknowledged the quotations made from Mr. Egmont Hake's volume, which are taken only from the few passages of it which are not, as is my own work mainly, a digest of the two original works named above.We have made it easy for you to find a PDF Ebooks without any digging.
