| Description | "Fiercely ambitious, yet fatally ambivalent about recognition, Lawrence made a brilliant academic career at Oxford before the First World War with a thesis on Crusader castles, before excavating at Carchemish while learning Arabic. Army intelligence work in Egypt in the early years of the war was the prelude to his participation in the great Arab Revolt against the Ottomans, fame at the Paris Peace Conference in 1919 and work with Winston Churchill in the war's aftermath. But then came a relentless, restless, self-abasing search for obscurity under assumed names, culminating in a motorbike crash and death at the age of only forty six." "This book, and the major exhibition at the Imperial War Museum that it accompanies, combine to shed new light on this enigmatic, contradictory and troubled man - a character of universal appeal who lived on the edge in all that he did."--BOOK JACKET. | | Release Date | 2005 | | Author | Malcolm Brown | | Format | Dimensions 25.4x28.0x2.5 cm
