Lawrence of Arabia

My Journey in Search of T.E. Lawrence

By: Ranulph Fiennes

Narrated by: Jonathan Keeble

A vivid and illuminating biography of the famed T. E. Lawrence, written by "the world's greatest living explorer," Ranulph Fiennes.

As a young British intelligence officer in Cairo, archaeologist and adventurer Thomas Edward Lawrence became involved in the 1916 Arab Revolt, fighting alongside rebel forces against the Ottomans. He made a legendary 300-mile journey through blistering heat; he wore Arab dress; and he strongly identified with the people in his adopted lands.

By 1918, he had a £20,000 price on his head.

Despite long fascination in his story, Lawrence—one of history's most enigmatic adventurers—has long remained unknowable. But with in-depth knowledge of what it takes to venture into the unknown, this authoritative biography from famed explorer Ranulph Fiennes at last brings enthralling insight and clarity to this remarkable life.

Interesting re-telling of a famous story.

I wish there had been more about Sir Ranulphs experience. Overall however very informative and recommended.
