mikey - I worried about that too but I think the clue is trying to be "&lit", where the whole thing is both wordplay and definition. In word play this clue is "endless glory" (= splendor) "surrounding am" = American. In definition it is "endless splendor surrounding" = glamor, with the explanation that it is in the American spelling.

Oenology.
Individual is "lone" elevated/reversed.
Circles are the letters "o" and "o".
"G" for good.
"y" for year.

A long shot, but General "Dyer" was the "perpetrator" of the Amritsar Massacre?
