GERTUDE BELL:
Queen of the Desert, Shaper of Nations
by Georgina Howell
In her time, (1868-1926) Gertrude Bell was the hero of the British Empire and instrumental in the creation of Iraq. She was Lawrence of Arabia and ever so much more: An architect, gardener, linguist, public servant, and passionate lover. This is a great biography written by a first-rate biographer.
