An exploration into the man behind the film-inspired myth, from both Western and Arab perspectives.

In 1916, he united Arab tribes and led them in a war against the Turks who ruled over them for 400 years. The consequences of his successes and failures sowed the seeds of conflict that continue to plague the troubled region even today.
