About the author

Thomas Edward Lawrence, British soldier, adventurer, and writer, who, known as "Lawrence of Arabia," from 1916 led the revolt against the Turks to 1918 and later wrote The Seven Pillars of Wisdom , an account of his adventures, in 1926.

The professional world came for Thomas Edward Lawrence. In 1922, he used John Hume Ross, the name, to enlist in the royal air force, which discovered and forced him. Afterward, he took T.E. Shaw to join the tank corps in 1923. The royal air force in 1925 eventually let him back.

[Susanna · Rating 4 out of 5]

p. 143: All men dream: But not equally.... This book is interesting, moving. When reading the "Diary of 1911" You will see, how teared up T.E. Lawrence was - he discribes in very romantic words a sunrise, complains, to have no possibility to get a shower...let us know (exactly) what he had for breakfast.... in "The Changing East" he more appears as a politician....He had his dream - but I don´t know... was his life fullfilled - if "yes" - in which way?
