Seven Pillars of Wisdom is the autobiographical account of the experiences of British soldier T. E. Lawrence ("Lawrence of Arabia"), while serving as a liaison officer with rebel forces during the Arab Revolt against the Ottoman Turks of 1916 to 1918.

Invisible Nation, by Quil Lawrence, is a good read if you want a better understanding of the Kurdish people and their history and current situation.

Thanks for the suggestion. I follow the Kurdish question closely and my master's research will focus on the Kurdish people and the social movement theory, although that is subject to change.
