The unique innovator and warrior immortalized as ''Lawrence of Arabia'' is remembered in this standard biography compiled by his good friend, Robert Graves.
T. E. Lawrence began his lifelong affair with the center East as a student at Oxford, taking a four-month walking head to of Syria to study the Crusaders castles. He later returned to the area as an archaeologist and was attached to British Army Brains in Egypt at the outbreak of World War I. In 1916, he lay out on his greatest adventure: without backing, Lawrence joined Arab causes facing almost insurmountable possibilities in a rebellion against Turkish domination. His brilliance as a desert-war strategist made him a hero among the list of Arabs and a star across the world, getting him the moniker Lawrence of Arabia. But his near-pathological dislike of publicity led him to a life of self-imposed obscurity as T. E. Shaw, anonymous RAF soldier. This is the standard biography of a distinctive innovator of men whose larger-than-life presence still echoes.
