About This Item

[Rolls Passage, London]: Jonathan Cape, 1955. Limited Edition . Hardcover. Very Good. 4to - over 9¾ - 12" tall. A Limited Edition of 2,000 copies, in quarter blue morocco over blue cloth, corners, edges rubbed. Spine, gilt titles. Internally, limitation/half title, [2], [2], 3-206 pp, t.e.g., remainder uncut, blue marbled endpapers. (257*194 mm). (O'Brien, P.M.T.E. Lawrence,; A172/A173). The Mint is a book written by T. E. Lawrence[a] and published posthumously in 1955. It describes his time in the Royal Air Force, working, despite having held senior rank in the army (colonel), as an ordinary aircraftman, under an assumed name, 352087 Ross. The book is notable, despite flaws noted by critics, for its sharp observation, for the insight it gives into Lawrence himself, and for the censorship issues around its publication.
