Summary

Revolt in the Desert is Lawrence of Arabia's classic military memoir, an account of the experiences of one remarkable British officer's war from his own perspective, a war of lightning raids, of blown up railway tracks and trains, ambushes and open battles of Arabs against the Ottoman Turks. Here are the Imperial Camel Corps, armoured car squadrons, daring RAF pilots and their aircraft, Ghurkha and Indian infantry and a bevy of 'specialists' who are the forerunners of today's special forces. It is unlike any other straightforward military memoir
