About This Item
USA: Little, Brown and Company. Fine in Good dust jacket. 1976. First Edition. Hardcover. 0316542326 . "A portrait of Lawrence of Arabia that far transcends conventional biography. Humanely and objectively, John Mack helps us to define the relationship between Lawrence's inner life and his historically significant actions, between the private man and his public impact. Delineates, as no other biographer has done, the meaning of what Lawrence sought to accomplish, what he did or did not achieve, what his amazing capacity for self-analysis has to tell us, and why it was that Lawrence, perhaps the most visible and celebrated anti-imperialist of his period, became the eventual victim of the dream he struggled so heroically to create." - dust jacket. p. xxviii, 561. Black and white photographic plates, footnotes, bibliography and index. Map endpapers. Book clean, bright and unmarked with minimal traces of wear to original red cloth lettered in gilt upon spine. Average wear to price-clipped dust jacket now preserved in archival-grade Brodart. A quality copy. ; 8vo .
