Summary

Persia Revisited was written by General Thomas Edward Gordon in 1895. Gordon was Military Attache and Oriental Secretary to Her Majesty's Legation at Tehran. Gordon returned to Persia and this is his account of the changes he saw there. As he was completing this book when the assassination of the Shah, Nasr-ed-Din occurred. Gordon added two chapters touching on the present situation. This book begins, "The Persians, as a people still nomadic in their habits, and much given to long pilgrimages, have good knowledge of the ways and means of making a journey pleasant. Their saying, 'Avval rafik, baad tarik' (First a companion, then the road), is one which most travelers can fully appreciate. Accordingly, when planning a trip in the autumn of 1895 to the Land of Iran, I cast about for a companion, and was fortunate enough to meet with two friends, both going that way, and who, moreover, like myself, had previously journeyed in Persia."
