Summary:

An in-depth account of the extraordinary, mysterious, and dynamic Englishman whose daring exploits and romantic profile made him an object of intense fascination. Korda analyzes Lawrence's vision for the modern Middle East, plans that might have prevented the current hatred and bloodshed in the region. Ultimately, Lawrence remains the paradigm of the hero in modern times, the arch-heroic type whose life is at once a triumph and a sacrifice, and whose capacity to astonish remains undimmed.
