First English edition of the first comprehensive study of Lawrence written by an Arab. Mousa's work seeks to redress what he perceived as an imbalance in Lawrence's version of 1916 Arab Revolt. Drawing on little known Arab sources and with assistance from survivors and observers of the conflict, Mousa asks pertinent questions regarding Lawrence's role and his sincerity of belief in Arab independence yet does so in a thoughtful and considered way. The publisher notes that Lawrence's brother was asked to comment and his words are included at the end. Loosely inserted in this volume is a small slip of card that reads "With Best Wishes Suleiman Mousa". O'Brien, E257.

First Edition. Octavo, light leaf-green cloth, spine embossed with gilt lettering, 158 pp., frontispiece, illustrated with eight black-and-white woodcuts.

Translated by T. E. Lawrence under the name of J. H. Ross, The Forest Giant was first published in English in 1924. This 1935 edition of Lawrence's fine translation (published shortly after his death) is illustrated with exquisite woodcuts by Scottish artist Agnes Miller Parker, and includes a publisher's note and dedication that are both absent from the original edition. The publisher notes that Lawrence's translation of the text is 'very free', more a 'rendering' rather than a close translation. Like Lawrence, Romanian-born author Rudolf Bernhardt wrote The Forest Giant under a pseudonym. His story follows a young protagonist on their journey of self-discovery, his growing maturity likened to the life of the forest's giant sequoia. O'Brien, A095.

From the Henry Williamson papers. The present text does not feature in Williamson's 1941 memoir of Lawrence 'Genius of Friendship', and appears to be unpublished. (According to Williamson's entry in the Oxford DNB, the publication in 1927 of 'Tarka the Otter' 'attracted the attention of T. E. Lawrence, whose letter of praise sta…rted a correspondence and friendship between the two. Indeed, Lawrence's fatal motorcycle crash on 14 May 1935 occurred as he was returning from a trip to the post office to send a telegram to Williamson'.) Eighteen lines of typewritten text, single-spaced, on one side of a 20 x 17 cm piece of laid Partridge & Cooper Ledger paper cut from the lower part of a leaf. Lightly aged and spotted, with one punch hole in margin. Two folds. Autograph emendation of the word 'jerk' to 'turn'. Two paragraphs, the first (and shorter) reading: 'There are several characteristic gestures of his that I can see vividly. One of them, his expression and action in turning his head upon a speaker when an idea has taken sudden root in his head from what has been said. He would turn his head sideways at an angle of 15º, give the person a quick glance and then frown, and as it were, set his eyes upon the other person's eyes with a swift jerk, as though to strike a line through the other's brain, to clear a way through thought-confusion to sky-clarity beyond.' The second paragraph discusses 'the hidden springs of his tact', 'difficult to convey in a screen version of his life', with reference to 'a George Arliss film'. Ends: 'The real thing, indeed, as Lawrence knew and used it, is terrifically better theatre. It is the basis of all religion.'.
