About this item

Product details

NATIONAL BESTSELLER - A New York Times Notable Book - Finalist for the National Book Critics Circle Award in Biography - From the author of King of Kings comes a thrilling and revelatory narrative of one of the most epic and consequential periods in 20th century history - the Arab Revolt and the secret "great game" to control the Middle East, including the infamous Sykes-Picot Agreement, that set the stage for decades of conflict.

"A fascinating book, the best work of military history in recent memory and an illuminating analysis of issues that still loom large today."--The New York Times
"Brilliant. . . . A dazzling accomplishment that combines superb historical research with a compelling narrative."--The Seattle Times

The Arab Revolt against the Turks in World War I was, in the words of T. E. Lawrence, "a sideshow of a sideshow." As a result, the conflict was shaped to a remarkable degree by a small handful of adventurers and low-level officers far removed from the corridors of power.

At the center of it all was Lawrence himself. In early 1914 he was an archaeologist excavating ruins in Syria; by 1917 he was riding into legend at the head of an Arab army as he fought a rearguard action against his own government and its imperial ambitions. Based on four years of intensive primary document research, Lawrence in Arabia definitively overturns received wisdom on how the modern Middle East was formed.
