 T.E.
Lawrence was a British military officer who took part in the Great Arab Revolt
and later wrote the memoir The Seven Pillars of Wisdom.


Born on August 16, 1888, in Caernarvonshire, Wales, T.E. Lawrence served in the British military,
becoming involved in Middle Eastern affairs and playing a key role in the Great
Arab Revolt. He was a staunch advocate for Arab independence and later pursued
a private life, changing his name. Author of The Seven Pillars of Wisdom and
inspiration for Lawrence of Arabia, he died on May 19, 1935.


'Lawrence of Arabia'

Thomas Edward
Lawrence became an expert in Arab affairs as a junior archaeologist in
Carchemish on the Euphrates River from 1911 to 1914, working for the British
Museum on archaeological excavations. After the start of World War I, he
entered British intelligence.

Lawrence joined
Amir Faisal al Husayn's revolt against the Turks as political liaison officer,
leading a guerilla campaign that harassed the Turks behind their lines. After a
major victory at Aqaba—a port city on the southern coast of what is now
Jordan—Lawrence's forces supported British General Allenby's campaign to
capture Jerusalem.

Capture
In 1917, T.E.
Lawrence was captured at Dar'a and tortured and sexually abused, leaving
emotional scars that never healed. By 1918, Lawrence had been promoted to
lieutenant colonel and was awarded the Distinguished Service Order and the
Order of Bath by King George V, but politely refused the medals in support of
Arab independence.
Spiritually and
physically exhausted, and uncomfortable with his fame, Lawrence returned to
England and began diligently working on an account of his adventures.

'The Seven Pillars
of Wisdom' and Later Years
His book, The
Seven Pillars of Wisdom, was published shortly thereafter, becoming known for
its vivid descriptions of the incredible breadth and variety of Lawrence's
activities in Arabia. The work garnered international fame for Lawrence, who
was aptly dubbed "Lawrence of Arabia."
After the war,
Lawrence joined the Royal Air Force under an assumed name, T.E. Shaw (in his
quest for anonymity, he had his name officially changed).
                                                         
Lawrence died in a motorcycle accident on May
19, 1935, in Clouds Hill, Dorset, England
