With its richly detailed evocation of the land and the people Lawrence passionately believed in, its incisive portraits of key players, from Faisal ibn Hussein, the future Hashemite king of Syria and Iraq, to General Sir Edmund Allenby and other members of the British imperial forces, The Seven Pillars of Wisdom is an indispensible primary historical source. It helps us to understand today's Middle East, while giving us thrilling accounts of military exploits (including the liberation of Aqaba and Damascus), clandestine activities, and human foibles." ; tan colored cloth in beautifully illustrated dustjacket ; bookplate ; thick, heavy volume ; FINE/FINE.

The present item is the producer Hugh Burnett's own copy, from his papers, of the transcript of John Freeman's interview with John, broadcast in the groundbreaking BBC series 'Face to Face' on 15 May 1960. This single-spaced typed transcript was produced for inclusion in Burnett's book 'Face to Face / Edited and introduced by Hu…gh Burnett' (London: Jonathan Cape, 1964), and is marked up with printing instructions in pencil and red ink, with a few proof corrections in green ink. 3pp, foolscap 8vo, on three leaves stapled together. In fair condition, lightly aged, with a few pin holes at top right of the leaves. An energetic, zesty interview. 'I'm a Welshman', John declares, 'a bad Welshman'. A passage regarding John's childhood conveys the general tone: 'I can remember one thing in an early school in Tenby. I'd practically idolized one of the masters, as schoolboys are apt to do, I think, and he betrayed me and held me up before the whole school, denounced me as a liar, d'you see, and the fact was I was completely innocent. I made a mistake, I know, a formal matter, but instead of protesting I succumbed before the class. I never forgave that man and I'm very glad to be able to report that soon after he blew his brains out, you see - in a railway train. I think I must have put something on him.' Further on he describes his affinity with gypsies: 'I was told to avoid them, by my nurses. I was always fascinated by them as a child, seeing them in the markets at Haverfordwest, strange foreign people. And then when I got to Liverpool I fell in with a great friend we made, John Samson, who was a student of Romany, and we went about a lot together. There I learnt the fine dialect spoken by one tribe in the north.' There are two interesting deletions. First, John's identification of the hospital at which his first wife died in France as being in the 'Boulevard Arago' has been scored through in black ink. Second, the passage 'Oh you got it from there? I thought I'd disguised it sufficiently.' has been typed through with crosses before the passage 'Certainly I'm interested in women. In beauty, I should think. If it's beauty, it's love. In my case! You've got to get excited before you can do anything, and beauty is a great excitant.'.

framed. Condition: near fine. Hand-written and signed letter by Welsh painter Augustus John. The letter mentions drawings John did of Irish novelist, poet, and literary critic James Joyce. Letter is framed next to a black and white image of John. Please inquire for more information. Augustus Edwin John was a Welsh painter, draug…htsman, and etcher. For a time he was considered the most important artist at work in Britain: Virginia Woolf remarked that by 1908 the era of John Singer Sargent and Charles Wellington Furse ". was over. The age of Augustus John was dawning." In the second volume of BLAST, Percy Wyndham Lewis wrote, referring to John, that the ten years up to 1914 had been "the Augustan decade." He was the younger brother of the painter Gwen John.
