T.E Lawrence's memoir Seven Pillars of Wisdom has been proven to be more historically accurate than previously thought. Neil Faulkner author and archaeologist at Bristol University speaks to our presenter Nick Robinson. He said: " The Lawrence who emerges from the war is a much darker man, a much more troubled man who isn't want to his own trumpet, but he's wanting to deal with those deep layers of guilt which is affected by after the war".
