First trade edition. Quarto, original cloth. Signed by Peter O'Toole below the author's portrait on the plate facing p. 610. Lawrence of Arabia is a 1962 British-American epic historical drama film based on the life of T. E. Lawrence and stars Peter O'Toole in the title role. It is widely considered one of the greatest and most influential films in the history of cinema. This is the first example we have seen signed by O'Toole. Fine in a very good dust jacket.
In writing his extraordinary account of the Arab Revolt of 1916–1918 and his own role in it, T.E. Lawrence sealed his place in history and legend as Lawrence of Arabia. Widely regarded as the last great romantic war story and described by Winston Churchill as one of “the greatest books ever written in the English language,” it conveys a world of wonders, written in the same committed fashion that Lawrence applied to his duties in Syria, this is a towering achievement of both autobiography and military history, as well as a first-rate adventure story.
