Itâs a gripping tale made famous by the movie Lawrence of Arabia, and one that Winston Churchill called âunsurpassableâ as a ânarrative of war and adventure.â It details his movements and actions during his two year involvement, his relationships with the various Arab leaders and men who fought with him, and his thoughtsâand doubtsâduring that time. His memoir is part travelogue, part philosophy treatise, and part action novel. Lawrence convinced the Arab leaders, who had historically not shown a willingness to work together, to join forces in supporting Britainâs strategy in the area. Britain had also promised the Arabs that, if they were successful, England would recognize a single Arab state. The empire had joined the side of Germany and the Central Powers in the war, and Britain hoped that a successful revolt would take the empire out of the war effort.
