Beschreibung

First Edition, First State. Publisher's brown buckram in original dust-jacket. Illustrated with sixteen photographs and drawings, complete with folding maps. A very fine copy of the True First Issue, with the following errors; p. 182, nine lines up 'Baltic' (corrected to 'Balkan'), p. 495 letter signed T. E. L [Lawrence] (corrected to 'T. E. S'[haw]). Clear, removable, archival protective sleeve fitted to dust-jacket. E. M. Forster first attempted editing the letters for publication, but gave up the effort. It fell to Garnett to compile this 1938 edition, which is the major collection, rivalled and supplemented only by 'Home Letters of T. E. Lawrence and his Brothers', (1954). Minor corrections were made during the run of the first impression and thus it appears in two states. O'Brien A202. Bestandsnummer des Verkäufers 101003
