Hero: The Life and Legend of Lawrence of Arabia

Hero: The Life and Legend of Lawrence of Arabia – The Definitive Biography of the British Soldier, Scholar, and Strategist

From Michael Korda, author of the New York Times bestselling Eisenhower biography Ike and the captivating Battle of Britain book With Wings Like Eagles, comes the critically-acclaimed definitive biography of T. E. Lawrenceâ€”the legendary British soldier, strategist, scholar, and adventurer whose exploits as â€œLawrence of Arabiaâ€ created a legacy of mythic proportions in his own lifetime. Many know T.E. Lawrence from David Leanâ€™s Oscar-winning 1962 biopicâ€”based, itself, upon Lawrenceâ€™s autobiographical Seven Pillars of Wisdomâ€”but in the tradition of modern biographers like John Meacham, David McCullough, and Barbara Leaming, Michael Kordaâ€™s penetrating new examination reveals new depth and character in the twentieth centuryâ€™s quintessential English hero.
