| Summary | "Three Months of My Life" by J. F. Foster is a diary written in the late 19th century, specifically in the year 1873. This memoir chronicles the experiences of J. F. Foster, an assistant surgeon in Her Majesty’s 36th Foot, during his time in Kashmir, detailing both the landscape he traverses and the reflections he makes along the way. The narrative paints a vivid picture of Foster's journey through the mountains and valleys of the region, providing insights into the beauty of nature, alongside personal thoughts on life, health, and aspirations. The opening of the diary sets the stage for a personal narrative that begins with Foster's struggle with health issues that led him to seek recovery in Kashmir. He describes his journey from Peshawar, accompanied by his dog and servant, and recounts the challenges and beauty he encounters while traversing the mountainous terrain. From describing his hikes to various scenic stops, detailed accounts of the weather, and even the companionship of his dog, Foster’s entries capture both the physical and emotional aspects of travel. As he begins to explore the stunning landscapes, readers can expect a blend of adventure, introspection, and rich descriptions of the people and places that shape his journey.
