Earl Winterton: 'Arabian Nights and Days: Part I' (7-32)

Lord Winterton was one of the British officers who joined the Arab forces for the final advance on Damascus, and the 1920 memoir reprinted here is valuable testimony (for the concluding part, see  Vol. II, No. 2). 


T. E. Lawrence: 'Ramping' (33-36)

Lawrence's article 'Ramping' is included in its original form, rather than the version he later edited for The Mint.


Anon: 'T. E. Lawrence and Rupert de la Bčre' [on Cranwell] (37-48)

Little has been written about Lawrence's friendship with Rupert de la Bčre, editor of the Journal of the Royal Air Force College, Cranwell. The librarian at Cranwell kindly provided us with a selection of material on the subject, and we have edited this into a brief memoir.


Adrian Rance: 'T. E. Shaw and the British Power Boat Company' (49-68)

T. E. Lawrence with Hubert Scott-Paine

Adrian Rance is Head of Cultural Services with Southampton City Council and has written a biography of Hubert Scott-Paine. He read a paper on Lawrence's association with the British Power Boat Co. at the society's 1990 Symposium. The text is printed here in a slightly revised form.


Richard Knowles: 'Tale of an "Arabian Knight": the T. E. Lawrence effigy' (69-83)


Most members will have seen Eric Kennington's memorial effigy of Lawrence in St Martin's Church, Wareham. The article by Richard Knowles records Kennington's work on this sculpture. It has been reprinted, with permission, from Church Monuments, Vol. VI, 1991. The photographs by Wing Commander R. G. Sims, which include some not published in Church Monuments, are printed by kind permission of his son, Squadron Leader John Sims.
