T.E. Lawrence, Lawrence of Arabia, died in 1935 of injuries from a mysterious motorcycle crash. The novel blends fact and fiction to place Lawrence at the center of a plot tangled by Zionists, British and Arabs in a vicious conflict that involves the world still.
"Mystery Continues! – Everyone intrigued by the tale of Lawrence of Arabia as told in David Lean's epic film, will want to get a grip on this disturbing end to the story. T.E. Lawrence may have been the most successful and famous real-life spy who ever lived. He could have been Prime Minister or Parlimentarian as was his less celebrated contemporary, Winston Churchill. Why did he instead enlist as a lowly private in several military regiments under assumed names, avoiding his fame? These are some of the questions Matthew Eden explores in this fascinating and well-researched novelization. It does not speculate endlessly, as many recent Lawrence books do, on the soldier's possible sexual preferences. But speculates plausibly on the possible uses others might have had for Lawrence, on Lawrence's own political interests, and the reasons why certain parties in 1935 might have wanted Lawrence dead. Best are the sequences of Lawrence and his beloved Brough Superior motorbike. Here are some of the best motorcycle riding descriptions I've ever read. I found it a very provocative book which inspired me to read further."
