Brilliant. Bravo!!

This is the best specialized encyclopedia I've ever come across on any subject. My congratulations to Mr. Tabachnick. I only wish he could have published it years earlier. This book has inspired me to reread Seven Pillars once again. There is virtually no important event or reference in Lawrence's life and work that can't be illuminated by this encyclopedia.
