  • The Grave of Lawrence of Arabia: T. E. Lawrence
    Colonel Thomas Edward Lawrence CB DSO (16 August 1888 - 19 May 1935) was a British archaeologist, army officer, diplomat, and writer, who became renowned for his role in the Arab Revolt (1916-1918) and the Sinai and Palestine Campaign (1915-1918) against the Ottoman Empire during the First World War. The breadth and variety of his activities and associations, and his ability to describe them vividly in writing, earned him international fame as Lawrence of Arabia, a title used for the 1962 film based on his wartime activities.

    Every year I come here on my birthday as I only live a few miles away. I like to walk the track on through the ford just down the lane which is lovely for sailing pond yachts with the children and taking picnics. The lane through the ford goes on toward his cottage at clouds hill, a lovely walk in the footsteps of TEL. All very special. Thank you for posting.

    Hello from Australia Rufus. Many thanks indeed for an absolutely BRILLIANT presentation on Lawrence of Arabia. I first learned about Lawrence on or about 1960, and took my very first girlfriend (A Yorkshire girl) on our first date to the cinema in Melbourne to see that great film Lawrence of Arabia. Many years down the track (I married a different girl) who was also fascinated with Lawrence. Following the birth of our children, our oldest son also became fascinated by Lawrence and no need to tell you; every 3 months or so; we'd watch the video of that film. In 1998, I visited the UK to catch up with relatives and a cousin's father who was a doctor at Oxford University; took me on a tour of that university. The one thing I needed to see was the Chapel in which Lawrence worshiped at Oxford. I took several photographs of the bronze bust of Lawrence in that Chapel and still have it with me to this day. I am sorry my time in England was limited to Three months but I had to get up to Scotland and Eire to visit relatives and other battle fields. I wish I had time to visit the grave of Lawrence and pay my respects. Many thanks for your video which is very appreciated.

    You did excellent. What a great man he was. I’m sad his friends were betrayed, he did his best. This was so well done, I subscribed, something I’m not given to do often
