The Life and Adventures of T.E. Lawrence: Lawrence of Arabia

Thomas Edward Lawrence, born on August 16, 1888, in Tremadoc, Wales, became legendary as Lawrence of Arabia. A British writer and soldier, he was recruited in 1911 by D.G. Hogarth to join an archaeological expedition to Carchemish. He played a key role in World War I as a junior officer in Egypt, where he met influential Arab leaders. His daring raids on the Damascus-Medina Railway and the capture of Aqaba in July 1917 cemented his fame. His experiences are chronicled in "The Seven Pillars of Wisdom" and "Revolt in the Desert."
