He wore Arab dress, and strongly identified with the people in his adopted lands. By 1918, he had a e20,000 price on his head. Despite people's fascination, Lawrence has long remained unknowable, one of history's most enigmatic explorers. But with in-depth knowledge of what it takes to venture into the unknown, this authoritative biography from explorer Ranulph Fiennes at last brings enthralling insight and clarity to this remarkable life.
