First Chapter of THE SEVEN PILLARS OF WISDOM

by T. E. Lawrence ‧ RELEASE DATE: N/A

This is an important sales item, a collectors' item definitely and news. At the time of its writing, Bernard Shaw urged Lawrence to begin his book with the second chapter, and to omit the first chapter, which is a comment on his war experience, showing his deeply-felt bitterness and amazing restraint. Colonel Isham, with permission of his executors, is releasing this material, along with a memoir and a number of letters to Isham. To be published in a de luxe limited edition, of 1,000 copies. Nothing available for advance reading. But it is safe to assume that content will have little to do with the importance of this as an item for advance orders on the part of specially selected customers. Don't miss -- or postpone -- it.
