The story of the Arab Revolt and the Hashemite princes who led it during WWI is inextricably linked in modern eyes to the legend of Lawrence of Arabia as portrayed in the 1962 film. But behind this romantic image lies a harsher reality of wartime expedience, double-dealing and dynastic ambition, which shaped the modern Middle East.
