Beschreibung:

LAWRENCE, T. E. (as “TE Shaw”). Autograph document signed, n.d. ca. 1927. 1 page, 8vo .
LAWRENCE, T. E. (as “TE Shaw”). Autograph document signed, n.d. ca. 1927. 1 page, 8vo . A REMARKABLE STATEMENT ABOUT THE RELATION BETWEEN REVOLT IN THE DESERT AND SEVEN PILLARS OF WISDOM . It reads in full: “‘Revolt in the Desert’ is not a book, on its own, but slices of a longer book, roughly bridged together with the minimum of new words. It was made at Cadet College, Cranwell, in April 1926, after work, in two evenings, by me; my right arm had been broken two days before, so I got A/C Miller and A/A/ Knowles to act secretaries for me, in the Hut. Because it isn’t a book, no copy of it will ever be signed by me. Every copy of the longer text (Seven Pillars of Wisdom) was signed. The author’s foreword to “Revolt” (initialed T.E.S.) was written by Mr. Bernard Shaw: he had no other part in the book.
