Notă biografică

Huntly Strathearn Gordon was born in a Perthshire manse in 1898. Educated at Merchiston and Clifton College, he joined the army in 1916. After the war he studied medicine, before going to China with Shell Oil. Returning in 1926, he joined London Transport and rose to be Chielf Welfare Officer, in his spare time surveying archaeological sites with Sir Mortimer Wheeler. During the Blitz, he initiated food trains for the thousands sheltering in the Underground, and was awarded an MBE. He married twice, and had four children. Huntly Gordon died in 1982, and is buried at Kincardine Church in Strathspey. David Gordon is Huntly Gordon's youngest son. Born in 1956, he went to Sherborne School and Sandhurst. He has been a soldier, parliamentary researcher and county councillor. A lifelong campaigner on environmental issues, his passions also include vintage vehicles and old houses. He lives in rural Somerset.
