T. E. Lawrence Correspondence – Page 201

To: Dr. C.M. Doughty, Colonial Office, BO. 6. 21, Dear Mr. Doughty, I'm back again in England, for a little bit (next move probably Jedda), after spending six weeks across Jordan, most of it in Amman, where conditions are strange, and rather exciting. I'd like to see you, but I hear you are away from Eastbourne. Your third edition is just being made ready, so the Carps will be: it's very good to have sold out in three months: better than I ever hoped. For the really large sales will not be touched till the cheap edition appears, and for that we will probably have to wait some years. I got a note from you when I got back, enclosing a cutting from the Times Correspondent at Maan: I'm afraid he got no nearer than Jerusalem in the rican, and not to near as that in his facts. My regards to Mrs. Doughty. Yours sincerely, T. E. Lawrence
