Lawrence went from being a heroic figure in a relatively minor battle of World War I to being the internationally famous "Lawrence of Arabia." Since his death in self-imposed obscurity in 1935, he has continued to arouse great interest. In this book, the author reexamines the man and the myth, giving pr perhaps the first time, a balanced view of the Lawrence behind the legend. The authors have given a portrait not of Lawrence the hero, nor of Lawrence the knave, but of T.E. Lawrence himself, heroism, quirks and all. A clean very presentable copy in a Brodart mylar jacket.
