Late in the morning on May 13, 1935, a middle-aged motorcyclist swerved
to avoid two cyclists in a leafy Dorset lane. He lost control, flew
over his handlebars and hit the road headfirst. Six days later - 70
years ago today - he died, having never regained consciousness. The
motorcyclist was T E Lawrence, the hero of the Arab Revolt, the causes
and consequences of which have an ongoing significance today.
