Lawrence of Arabia:The Literary Impulse
Baton Rouge: Louisiana State University Press, 1975

p. 112

… [Lawrence’s] next venture in translation was self-aborted. Cape had offered him…Sturly by Pierre Custor….On Christmas Day, 1923, he wrote Cape that he had wanted to send the completed work as a Christmas present, but that it was not yet ready. "I’m afraid I’m not good as a translator, …indeed what the hell I am good for God only Knows."
