A talk by Sir Ronald Storrs
Sir Ronald Storrs asks a straightforward question: What attraction was it that drew to Arabia the authors of ' Arabia Deserta' and ' Seven Pillars of Wisdom ' ? The answer is complex; but Sir Ronald brings to it a wide knowledge of Arabia and those who have felt its appeal, and a personal acquaintance with T. E. Lawrence during the period covered by ' Seven Pillars of Wisdom '
