On Wednesday, I promised those who read today’s post the possibility of winning an autograph of Methuselah, the 969-year-old man of the ancient world.

“My Early Life” serves a key political purpose for modern democracies, recovering a vision of nobility and political greatness for young readers. At the same time, this rich text can serve as a point of departure on an even narrower path of human excellence discovered by Socrates, whose students included statesmen and poets in the ancient agora—and a young British cavalry officer in the unlikely setting of Bangalore.
