1924211<p><strong>WITH LAWRENCE IN ARABIA by LOWELL THOMAS first edition first printing in first printing dust jacket inscribed by Lowell Thomas.</strong> Published by The Century Company 1924 New York and London First American Edition. The book that first popularized T. E. Lawrence and his exploits in the Middle East. Lowell Thomas from Victor in the Cripple Creek Gold Mining District of Colorado was sponsored by wealthy Chicago meat-packing company owners after he helped break a Chicago stockyards scandal in the late 1910s. As partially reward for Thomas' excellent journalistic work these wealthy Chicago businessmen funded Lowell Thomas' travels to the Middle East where he was soon onto the early "legend" of Lawrence of Arabia. Lawrence a Colonel in the British army was considered an adviser in Arabian affairs; however he was consisdered a "deserter" as he made himself useful to King Hussein of the Hedjaz. Lawrence and Hussein formed an Arabian army that pushed the Turks out of Medina and Mecca. And Lowell Thomas was there to see the story unfold with his own eyes. Later as Thomas took his lantern slide tour of "With Lawrence of Arabia" around the world Lawrence began to regret the notoriety he was receiving not yet aware that Thomas had a contract with Century Company to publish a book on Thomas' travels with Lawrence.
