Bookseller Notes

An absorbing account of this elusive edition, the careful research and detail of the text mirrored by the production values of the book itself: the typeface specifically designed by Maria Doreuli, based on William Caslon's 18th century metal type, Lawrence's favourite; the binding 'in homage to the Doran binding of Seven Pillars of Wisdom' (colophon).
