Lawrence of Arabia's personal account of how he successfully led an Arab Revolt against the Ottoman Empire. Winston Churchill called this one of the “greatest books ever written in the English language.”
The 'Oxford' text privately published first in 1922 is a third longer than the 1926 fine-press abridged volume issued to subscribers. After his death, the subscribers' abridgement was published and its success was so huge that, despite pleas from critics and historians, no one would risk printing the fuller version.
Edited by Jeremy Wilson, the 'Oxford' text was first published by Castle Hill Press in 1997 in an edition of 752 three-volume sets. A second revised edition appeared in 2003 with an award-winning index. A trade edition was published by J. and N. Wilson in 2004.
