London: Golden Cockerel Press, 1936. Somerset de Chair's copy. The two volume set with maps. The thesis on military architecture of the crusading kingdoms, submitted in 1910 the original title was "The influence of the Crusades on European military architecture - to the end of the XIIth Century" by T.E. Lawrence, together with a volume of his letters regarding his visits to castles as a young man. This was published shortly, in fact a year plus one day, after Lawrence's death in 1935 by arrangement with his brother A.W. Lawrence. Printed and published in Great Britain by Christopher Sandford, Francis J. Newbery, and Owen Rutter at the Golden Cockerel Press, 10 Staple Inn, London, and completed on the 20th May 1936. The edition is limited to 1000 numbered copies printed in Perpetua type on British mould-made paper. Two volumes. Bound in half chestnut morocco binding (Sangorski & Sutcliffe), top edges brightly gilt. A very good tight set with some minor discolouration to the cream cloth that is so often the case with these volumes. Includes the two fold out maps in folder. Maps are clean with no chips, no tears. This set belonged to Somerset de Chair and both volumes bear his engraved bookplate. Somerset Struben de Chair (1911 - 1995) was an English author, politician and poet. He edited several volumes of the memoirs of Napoleon for the Golden Cockerel Press as well as two volumes on the Middle East, The Golden Carpet and The Silver Crescent, also for the GCP. Altogether a nice set of this scarce Lawrence item. See, A History of the Golden Cockerel Press, Cave & Manson for further details regarding the publication. O'Brien A188.. First Limited Edition. Hardback. Very Good. 4to - over 9¾" - 12" tall. Private Press.
