1936177747London: The Corvinus Press 1936. Inscribed by the owner of the Corvinus Press to E. M. Forster Signed limited edition number 103 of 128 copies signed by Liddell Hart and Ronald Storrs inscribed on the front free endpaper "To E. M. Forster from Carlow. The printer of this book. Nov 22 1936". This copy retains the rare jacket unknown to O'Brien. The Corvinus Press was established in 1936 by Viscount Carlow who had formed a friendship with Lawrence in the early 1930s based on a shared interest in book collecting fine printing and languages. They had even discussed setting up a private press - a plan that foundered due to Lawrence's premature death. E. M. Forster and Lawrence first met in 1921 at the house of Emir Feisal. Forster was impressed by Lawrence who was already famous for his exploits in the Arab Revolt. Three years later Siegfried Sassoon asked Forster to read the as-yet unpublished Seven Pillars of Wisdom which left him so inspired that he wrote a letter of effusive praise to Lawrence: "You will never show it to any one who will like it more than I do: its subject and incidentals suit me: also my critical sense never stops telling me it's fine" Lawrence 9. This kindled a friendship that lasted until Lawrence's death as one of Forster's many queer relationships forged through the intimate exchange of literature. They continued most of their correspondence through letters discussing and critiquing each other's work but also visiting in person a number of times. In 1927 Forster dedicated The Eternal Moment and Other Stories "To TE in the absence of anything else". Lawrence of Arabia prints the speeches by Liddell Hart and Storrs given at a luncheon in memory of Lawrence about a month after his death; that by Liddell Hart is entitled "Lawrence: The Artist in War and Literature" and that by Storrs "Lawrence: Himself". The edition comprised 24 copies on Medway paper specially printed for Liddell Hart and Storrs 25 copies on Boswell paper 6 copies on Winchmore Blue paper and 70 further copies on Medway paper. There were also 3 copies kept for the publisher. All 128 copies in the edition were signed. Quarto. Original brown quarter hessian cloth spine lettered in gilt single gilt rules at spine and corner edges brown kinari chiri paper boards by Sangorski & Sutcliffe Corvinus device to front board top edge gilt others uncut. With original clear plastic dust jacket and paper flaps. Cloth fresh title a little offset; jacket with a few chips to edges rear flap judiciously stabilized: a near-fine copy in very good jacket.
