These letters from Major General Charles George Gordon include important details of his service in Sudan, China, South Africa, and Jerusalem. Also known as "e;Chinese Gordon"e; and "e;Gordon of Khartoum"e;, he made his military reputation in China, where he was placed in command of the "e;Ever Victorious Army"e;, a force of Chinese soldiers led by European officers which was instrumental in putting down the Taiping Rebellion, regularly defeating much larger forces. In 1884 he was sent to the Soudan to defend it against the Mahdi Army. The year-long siege ended when the British relief column arrived two days after Gordon's capture and death. Important volume for the full understanding of this famous and noted British general officer.-Print ed.
