Beschreibung

First UK Edition (first printing), issued a year after the original American edition. 8vo. xiii, 317pp. Red cloth lettered and ruled in gold at the spine and with a blind-stamped double border to the upper board. With sixty-five captioned black and white photographs by Harry A.Chase. The backstrip cloth lightly faded, and the ends a little bruised. Just a trace of very light spotting to the fore- and bottom-edge, and to very occasional leaf margins. A very good copy. No dust wrapper. One of the earliest in-situ accounts of the Arab War and T.E.L.'s contribution to it (and now an uncommon item). Thomas (along with cameraman Harry Chase) met Lawrence in Jerusalem and the three spent several weeks together in the desert where they photographed and interviewed various Arab leaders, and shot dramatic footage of Lawrence that Thomas later used during his public lectures in the US and Britain to educate people on the war in Palestine.
