Description:
First edition, second state, with the typographical errors on pages 182 and 495 corrected. The first collected correspondences of T.E. Lawrence (1888-1935), British archaeologist, soldier, and diplomat best known for his involvement with the Arab revolt, and the campaigns in the Arabian Peninsula against the Ottoman empire during the First World War.
In this book the career of T.E.Lawrence from the time he was a schoolboy, interested in archaeology, until his death in 1935, is recorded almost entirely in his own words: in his letters and unpublished secret documents and official reports.
