Robert Graves. Stated first American edition, first printing. New York: Doubleday, Doran & Company, 1928. Both unclipped dust jacket (in a mylar wrapper) and hardcover are in Very Good condition. No writing or markings found in the book, 400 pp.
A remarkable look at one of the 20th century’s most legendary figures.
Written by acclaimed novelist, poet, and historian Robert Graves, this early biography explores the extraordinary life of T.E. Lawrence (“Lawrence of Arabia”), whose leadership during the Arab Revolt became one of history’s most enduring military and political stories. This edition actually predates his death(1935), making it one of the earliest book-length studies of the man while his legend was still being formed.
A wonderful addition to any serious Lawrence of Arabia or modern first edition collection.
