Couldn't Have Been Better: My Life Story

Couldn’t Have Been Better – My Life Story by Major General Syed Mustafa Anwer Husain is a very interesting and enjoyable book to read, written by the author primarily for his family members to serve as a record with them of their elders. It will also benefit a few senior and junior officers to understand how to conduct themselves in different situations. Other readers can amuse themselves with numerous anecdotes that appear in the book. The author mentions the contribution of his parents on being awarded scholarships for further studies at Oxford University, England. Consequently, the author was born in Oxford, which subsequently enabled him to apply for dual nationality after he retired from the Army. On return to Hyderabad-Deccan in India, his parents ensured that his early childhood was not neglected due to the absence of proper schools in the districts where his father served.
