The Journal of the T. E. Lawrence Society Contents of Volumes I to XXVI
The Journal of the T. E. Lawrence Society Contents of Volumes I to XXVI Vol. I, No. 1, Spring 1991 Jeremy Wilson: A. W. Lawrence, 1900-1991 (p.7) A brief tribute to A. W. Lawrence, who died on Easter Sunday 1990, discussing his role as T. E. Lawrence’s literary executor. Nicholas Lynch: Eleven Hundred Miles on the Lawrence Trail (pp. 8-20) An account of a bicycle tour in France in 1990 that retraced the first part of the route taken by Lawrence in August 1908. Illustrated with photographs of some of the buildings also photographed by Lawrence. Rupert Chapman: Lawrence as Archaeologist (pp. 21-29) Rupert Chapman, Executive Secretary of the Palestine Exploration Fund, considers Lawrence’s developing career as an archaeologist before the First World War. A. J. Flavell: T. E. Lawrence and the Bodleian (pp. 30-42) Jack Flavell, Assistant Librarian at the Bodleian Library, discusses Lawrence’s roles as a Bodleian reader and benefactor. D. G. Hogarth: Mecca’s Revolt against the Turk (pp. 43-56) Although D. G. Hogarth contributed significantly to British policy in the Middle East during and after the First World War, he left no memoirs. Articles such as this 1920 contribution to the American Century magazine therefore have permanent interest. Interview with Colonel Lawrence, from The Globe, 12 December 1918 (pp. 57-59) Lawrence’s interview with The Globe has not previously been reprinted. It has historical interest, not merely as the first known press interview he gave after the war, but because of the modesty he shows and the tributes he pays to other participants in the Arab Revolt. -

T. E. Lawrence: His Service in the Royal Air Force
T. E. Lawrence: His Service in the Royal Air Force Air Commodore (Retired) Professor Peter Gray University of Wolverhampton T. E. Lawrence, as the ‘Uncrowned Prince of Arabia’, has been described as the most ‘glamorous figure produced by the First World War'.1 Although such extravagant statements are open to debate, there can be little doubt that Lawrence achieved legendary status during and after the First World War. As Brian Holden Reid has pointed out, public interest was whetted rather than lessened by Lawrence’s decision in 1922 to join the Royal Air Force as an airman and not as an officer. In the event, he spent two periods of time in the RAF with an intervening spell in the Royal Tank Corps. This paper will concentrate on Lawrence’s service in the RAF.2 Like the formal presentation delivered to the RAF Historical Society Annual General Meeting, the paper will focus on issues for which there is evidence and leave the conjecture, which is inevitable with Lawrence, to the discussion period. The paper will examine a number of issues including why Lawrence wanted to join the RAF and why he was determined to enlist in the ranks. The paper will also look at the question as to how he got away with such a radical move (if indeed he did so) and finally reflect on what we can learn about the RAF in the inter-war years through the Lawrence lens. Lawrence gained fame, promotion and formal decorations (CB and DSO) for his service in Arabia and featured in the movie With Allenby in Palestine and Lawrence 1 Brian Holden Reid, ‘T. -

A very good set. £895 Second edition of the parallel 1922 and 1926 text, limited to 50 sets, this set marked ‘hors series’. Seven Pillars of Wisdom is T.E. Lawrence’s (‘Lawrence of Arabia’s’) autobiographical account of his experiences in the Arab Revolt, from his frst involvement in 1916 to the capture of Damascus in 1918. Churchill – one of many famous admirers of the work – wrote that ‘as a narrative of war and adventure, as a presentation of all that the Arabs mean to the world, the Seven Pillars is unsurpassable. It ranks with the greatest books ever written in the English language’ (A.W. Lawrence (ed.), T.E. Lawrence by his Friends (London, 1937), p. 199). Lawrence began making notes on his role in the Arab Revolt towards the end of World War I, and much of the frst draft of his celebrated account of his experiences was written during the Paris Peace Conference in early 1919.
