Description

Seven Pillars of Wisdom: A Triumph by T. E. Lawrence

Published by Jonathan Cape. Printed in Oxford, Great Britain. Ninth impression, July 1937.

1935. T. E. Lawrence’s famous account of the Arab Revolt of 1916 to 1918, part war memoir, part desert travelogue, and part very personal self-portrait. This is an early copy, printed only two years after the book was first made available to the general public in 1935. The ninth impression shows how widely it was read.

Condition: Good. Complete with all four maps and 37 illustrations. Cover clean and spine firm. Light foxing (small brown spots from age) to the title pages, the inside back cover, and the first two pages. No dust jacket. Foxing on the outside page edges.

A solid, handsome copy for the reader or collector, with only the honest marks of its age.
