Seven Pillars of Wisdom : A Triumph
T. E. Lawrence
A great work, this ripping yarn is beautifully written by one one of the most intriguing characters of the modern era. Lawrence was scholar, linguist, poet, pilot, warrior and a leader of men. Shortly before he lost his life in 1935 as the result of a fall from his beloved Boanerges he had declined a position on the general staff which would in all likelihood have seen him a senior commander of the British forces at war's onset. At the time his rank was that of a corporal in a tank regiment. A subscriber's edition of Seven Pillars sold at auction recently for just under a million dollars. Dropbears.com

I am not a very tractable person or much of a hero-worshipper, but I would have followed Lawrence over the edge of the world. I loved him for himself, and also because there seemed to be reborn in him all the lost friends of my youth. If genius be, in Emerson's phrase, a "stellar and undiminishable something", whose origin is a mystery and whose essence cannot be defined, then he was the only man of genius I have ever known.

Lawrence : The Uncrowned King of Arabia
by Michael Asher
Thomas Edward Lawrence was born illegitimate in 1888, "the son of unmarried parents who had vanished from one life to recreate themselves in another." (His father left four daughters, a marriage, and a hefty inheritance in Dublin to start a new life in England with the woman who'd been his children's governess.) Lawrence matured into an elusive man whose shifting personas baffled admirers and detractors alike. Explorer and Arabian scholar Michael Asher, himself familiar with the desert lands in which Lawrence made his military reputation during the First World War, accepts him as a complex bundle of contradictions. The story of this romantic Englishman's involvement in the Arab revolt against Turkey is, as always, a gripping physical, political, and spiritual adventure, and Asher retells it well. The book's most noteworthy achievement, however, is the balanced assessment of Lawrence as "a real man with a real blend of strengths and weaknesses ... whose inner lack of strong identity allowed him to be anything and anyone he felt others needed him to be." Biography purists may be put off by Asher's first-person intrusions into the narrative (frequently to retrace Lawrence's most famous journeys or to consider the veracity of incidents Lawrence described in Seven Pillars of Wisdom), but they serve to anchor a near-mythic existence in the geographic realities of the region he loved.

A Prince of Our Disorder : The Life of T. E. Lawrence
by John E. Mack
When this Pulitzer Prize-winning biography first appeared in 1976, it rescued T. E. Lawrence from the mythologizing that had seemed to be his fate. In it, John Mack humanely and objectively explores the relationship between Lawrence's inner life and his historically significant actions.Extensive interviews, far-flung correspondence, access to War Office dispatches and unpublished letters provide the basis for Mack's sensitive investigation of the psychiatric dimensions of Lawrence's personality. In addition, Mack examines the pertinent history, politics, and sociology of the time in order to weigh the real forces with which Lawrence contended and which impinged upon him.

Brough Superior The "Rolls-Royce" of Motorcycles. T.E. Lawrence, a great proponent of the Rolls-Royce marque, was also a magnificent motorcyclist. He owned a succession of Brough Superiors and travelled at speed over distances which in this day and age seem quite respectable, but which in the 1920's & 30's were little short of incredible.
