A 20th century icon, Lawrence of Arabia, as Thomas Edward Lawrence is more commonly known, spent 13 out of his 46 years in the region from which he drew his name. This was as a scholar researching his university thesis, a spy surveying Sinai for the British Army before the First World War, an intelligence officer in Cairo, a liaison officer to the Arabs, and as a diplomat who galvanised and united the Arab tribes into an effective fighting force. He became an explosives expert and a guerrilla fighter who influenced Arab leaders in defeating their Ottoman occupiers. The story of his achievements in Arabia, derailing Turkish trains and attacking enemy strongholds, has become the stuff of legend. In this highly illustrated book, the story of Lawrence's fascinating life is explored through many of the places and objects associated with him.
