T.E. Lawrence

Doubleday Doran, Garden City, 1938

Lawrence Of Arabia
Where the Iraqi insurgents learned guerilla tactics. Excellent, interesting reading about Lawrence's WWI experience in Saudi Arabia, Jordan, and Syria. The first guy to realize that you have to win the hearts and minds of the people to win the war.

Revolt in the desert

T. E Lawrence

Barnes & Noble Books, 1993

Never Meant For Publication & Mass Distribution!
In 1919 A.D., author T.E. Lawrence wrote out in a 400,000 word book "the whole bitter account of his adventure (in Arabia) and of his disappointment over the conclusion which the Peace Conference seemed to put to it." Lawrence left that manuscript replete with notes and many photographs in a handbag at the Reading railway station which was then stolen from that location. Lawrence tried to ...

This Best is the Best
Hemingway's introduction states: "This book has been edited in order that...boys, as they grow to the age where they can appreciate it and use it and will need it, can have [a] book that will contain truth about war as near as we can come by it." As a result of careful selection and organization, this collection of war stories accomplishes what Hemingway set out to do. As a teacher, I've found ...

With Lawrence in Arabia

T.E.] Thomas, Lowell [Lawrence

Garden City Publishing, 1924

A testimony of one of modern Western literature's great minds. A perfect prelude to Lawrence's own works by his contemporary.
In "With Lawrence in Arabia," author Lowell Thomas recounts his experiences as perhaps one of the world's earliest "imbedded" journalists. Along with his photographer Henry .A. Chase, Thomas captures the exploits of T.E. Lawrence in typical 1920's journalistic fashion. There is little doubt that Lawrence's eloquence and mastery of the English language in no small part rubbed off on the ...

This book is a insight into the world at the dawn of the 20th century. This is a sweeping comprehensive factual account that should be in the collection fo any book reader.

Homer, T. E. Lawrence

Oxford University Press, USA, 1991

An Oustanding Translation
I hesitated in buying this translation of the Odyssey having grown up with verse translations, most notably that of Fitzgerald. A prose translation somehow put me off; it seemed like the very meaning of Homer's words would be rendered into something different. One day, I read about the translation that T. E. Lawrence had made and, intrigued, I decided to read it for myself. I was very glad ...

A view of warfare from a bygone era
I will echo the sentiments of previous reviewers in extolling the remarkable style of Seven Pillars...the detailed descriptions of the desert and the bedu bring the reader right into the book. I was taken aback by the distinct differences between the book and the movie, even with having a good working knowledge of this era. For those who only know Lawrence from the movie, please read this book ...

The Hejaz War
The Hejaz War of 1917 was written by Colonel T.E. Lawrence at the Paris peace talks in 1920 -21. Lawrence understood the Arabs thay did not conquer territory but they brought the Arab tribes together to conquer the Ottoman Turkish Army whom they considered poor soldiers. The Hejaz is the Red Sea coast parallel to the extinct lava fields of the 3,000m high Hejaz mountains. The Hejaz railway, ...

Seven Pillars of Wisdom (Penguin Modern Classics)

T.E. Lawrence

Penguin Classics, 2000

timeless classic of guerrilla warfare
One sees through Lawrence's eyes the failure of standard military doctrine and the success of classic guerilla doctrine. The pinnacle of the book arrives as he lays in his tent, pondering the aims of the Arab rebellion. Insights then flow which remind one very much of Sun Tzu's "formlessness" and "substance/vacuity" principles in the Art of War. I guess every generation has to learn the basic ...

After Arabia: a different Life in the service for T. E. Lawrence
"The Mint" is the second book written by T. E. Lawrence (following "Seven Pillars of Wisdom") and is extremely different in tone and style but still an exceptionally well-written book about life in the service in the lower ranks. In 1922, after he returned from his Arabian experiences, Lawrence enlisted in the RAF under the name of John Hume Ross as a common, lower rank, serviceman and ...

Irwin/McGraw-Hill, 2004

The Leader in Corporate Social Performance
The book is very pricy compared to Jim Collins books. However, for a college textbook it is an average price. As for what is inside the book, there is nothing average about it. The first edition of this book was published in in the 1960's by Prof's Keith Davis and Robert Blomstrom. Since then, it has been updated with new data that further proves the benefits of measuring a triple bottom ...

Wadsworth Publishing, 2005

Required Reading
The "political activist," obviously a poorly-educated person and a person with an agenda which forbids unbiased appreciation of another person's point of view, provides a misleading review of this book, which is a solid introduction to its subject-matter. Do not be fearful of divergent views which do not toe the party line. Enjoy this book.

Mcgraw-Hill College, 2001

This book was very well written and comprehesive.
Most textbooks do a very poor job of addressing current issues in a clear, accurate, concise manner. This book, however, is to be commended. I especially found the resource information and discussion cases to be a tremendous benefit. The discussion questions and current event topics encourage the students to explore these issues outside of class, in their businesses and in the community. ...

Jonathan Cape, 1973

Mandatory Companion to Seven Pillars of Wisdom
Called by T. E. Lawrence expert, Michael Yardley, the "most honest" of Lawrence's works, it is his account of his post-World War I service in the RAF. A definite must-read for Lawrence aficionados.
