THE GOLDEN WARRIOR The Life and Legend of Lawrence of Arabia by Lawrence James

During the 1920s, T. E. Lawrence gained global attention, both for his involvement in the Middle Eastern anti-imperialist movement, and for his vivid and sensational writings about his experiences. Despite the passage of many years and the emergence of a whole new set of problems in the Middle East, and fuelled by the success of the hit movie Lawrence of Arabia, the T. E. Lawrence mystique continues to fascinate. Controversial and provocative, this revised and updated edition of Lawrence James’s acclaimed biography penetrates and overturns the mythology that surrounds T. E. Lawrence. James traces the sometimes spurious Lawrence legend back to its truthful roots, yet remains dispassionate and generous in spirit throughout. The Golden Warrior presents readers with a fascinating study of one of the twentieth century’s most remarkable figures. 24 b/w photographs.

Osprey – World War I Trench Warfare (2) 1916–18 (Elite 84)

World War I Trench Warfare (2)1916–18Elite 84Author: Stephen BullIllustrator: Adam HookThe Allied attempt to break the stalemate of trench warfare by the ‘big pushes’ of 1916 led to massively costly battles of attrition. The Germans responded by developing schemes of defence in depth anchored on concrete bunkers; the Allies, by sophisticated artillery tactics in support of infantry assaults, and by the introduction of the tank – at first an accident-prone novelty, but later a front-breaking weapon. On both sides the small, self-reliant, opportunistic infantry unit, with its own specialist weapons, became the basic tool of attack. This second of a fascinating two-part study of the birth of 20th century tactics is illustrated in colour and includes rare photographs.Contents· 1916; ‘the big push’ against established trench lines · The Somme · Standardised production of trench materials – trench camouflage · Advances in gas warfare · Infantry training · Light machine guns · 1917: Messines & Vimy – tunnel and mine warfare · Creeping barrages – tanks – light machine guns down to section level – flame throwers · New defensive systems · 1918: the deadlock broken · German stormtroopers, British ‘blobs & worms’ · Trench howitzers – anti-tank rifles – sub-machine guns · Battles: the Kaisershlacht – French and Americans on the Argonne – the British break the Hindenburg Line.Paperback; June 2002; 64 pages; ISBN: 9781841761985
