T. E. Lawrence

There have probably been more books written about T. E. Lawrence than any other figure from World War I. He's been idolized as a hero and denounced as a fraud, praised for championing rights of the Third World, and damned as just one more jingo imperialist. He's been labeled the world's greatest poseur and the humblest of men, an inspired military leader of men, and a simple liaison officer stealing credit from his fellow soldiers.
