About this book

This study of Lawrence's travel writings is the first book-length study to approach the subject with reference to contemporary post-colonial theory. Focusing on the writings of 1921-25, the period when Lawrence was most intensely engaged in travel, it includes chapters on Sea and Sardinia, Kangaroo, The Plumed Serpent and the essays and stories inspired by Lawrence's experience of the New World.

Reviews

'...invaluable to the postcolonial discourse to which Lawrence is becoming more accessible'. - Tennu Mbuh, The Journal of the English Association
