Lawrence's Seven Pillars of Wisdom, the autobiographical account of Lawrence of Arabia, must be intrigued by the person of Auda abu Tayi...the leader of the Howeitat tribe of the Bedouin Arabs. He was a fierce and reckless old desert marauder. Lawrence wrote: "Auda thought all things possible with dynamite and money."
