Lawrence Of
Arabia
The Authorized Biography of T. E. Lawrence
By Jeremy Wilson
First published in 1989 by William Heinemann Ltd., London,
then in the United States by Atheneum, New York.
Unlike other writings about its subject, Wilson's book deliberately
limits itself to contemporary sources, thus obviating after-the-fact
controversial speculations about Lawrence's actual doings and
achievements. The book is 1188 pages, including extensive notes
and an index.
