Summary:
The Seven Pillars of Wisdom is T. E. Lawrences memoir of his involvement in leading a portion of the Arab revolt against the Ottoman empire during the first World War. The Ottomans had joined the side of Germany and the Central Powers in the war, and Britain hoped that a successful revolt would take them out of the war effort. Britain had also promised the Arabs that England would recognize a single Arab state. With the support of Emir Faisal and his tribesmen, T. E. Lawrence helped organize and carry out attacks on the Ottoman forces from Aqaba in the south to Damascus in the north.
This memoir is a travelogue, philosophy treatise, and an action novel. It details Lawrences movements and actions during his two year involvement in the Arab revolt, and his thoughtsand doubtsduring that time. Its a gripping tale made famous by the movie Lawrence of Arabia, and one that Winston Churchill called unsurpassable as a narrative of war and adventure.
