Lawrence "Lawrence of Arabia" recounts his role in the origin of the modern Arab world. At first a shy Oxford scholar and archaeologist with a facility for languages, he joined and went on to lead the Arab revolt against the Ottoman Turks while the rest of the world was enmeshed in World War I. With its richly detailed evocation of the land and the people Lawrence passionately believed in, its incisive portraits of key players, from Faisal ibn Hussein, the future Hashemite king of Syria and Iraq, to General Sir Edmund Allenby and other members of the British imperial forces, The Seven Pillars of Wisdom is an indispensible primary historical source. It helps us to understand today's Middle East, while giving us thrilling accounts of military exploits (including the liberation of Aqaba and Damascus), clandestine activities, and human foibles." ; tan colored cloth in beautifully illustrated dustjacket ; bookplate ; thick, heavy volume ; FINE/FINE.

Add to basket1p, 4to. Twenty-three lines. Large sprawling signature 'Lawrence G. Blochman'. In fair condition, worn and creased on lightly-discoloured paper. The recipient, an enthusiastic autograph collector, has evidently asked him to sign a bookplate to be stuck in his latest book ''Recipe for Homicide'. Her note has finally reached him 'through channels (via my English publisher through my London agent to my New York agent)'. He is glad she finds the book entertaining, 'even though you had not yet, at the time of writing, discovered the culprit'. He is returning the bookplate 'with as much inscription as I could crowd on to it'. He continues: 'It is indeed a long time between Blochman books, and you may rest assured that my British public is not being discriminated against. It is just that, for economic reasons, I have found it more profitable to write short stories and articles for the magazines. Writing books, in the current state of the market, is almost a luxury - unless, of course, one should happen to turn out a best-seller, a fate which I have unfortunately been spared to date.' The only one of his books not to have appeared in England is his 'Dr. Coffee' collection 'Diagnosis: Homicide', which 'won the Edgar Allan Poe Award of the Mystery Writers of America a few years ago'. It seems that British publishers are 'prejudiced against volumes of short stories, which they say do not sell'. He has, however, been receiving royalties for an English paperback edition.…
