Lawrence of Arabia s heroism during the Arab revolt, and his disgust at the subsequent betrayal of the Arabs in the 1919 Treaty of Versailles, has become the stuff of legends. But T. E. Lawrence s adventures in the Levant began long before the outbreak of war. Anthony Sattin here delivers the untold story of the awkward archaeologist from Oxford who, on first visiting The East at the age of twenty, fell in love with Arab culture and found his life s mission. Drawing on surviving letters, diaries, and accounts from close confidantes, Sattin uncovers new aspects of Lawrence s family history, his tender relationship with a young Syrian boy, and his longing for a nomadic life among the ruins of the Crusades. In a masterful parallel narrative, The Young T. E. Lawrence charts the maturation of the man and the incipient countries he treasured, both coming of age at a time when the world s foundations were coming undone."
