| Summary | "Lord Lawrence" by Sir Richard Carnac Temple is a historical account written in the late 19th century. The work chronicles the life and achievements of John Laird Mair Lawrence, a key figure in British India, including his role in the governance of the Punjab and his actions during the War of the Mutinies. This biography highlights his character as a man of action who rose from humble beginnings to become known as a savior of the Indian Empire. The opening of the book introduces Lawrence's background, detailing his birth in 1811 and his ascent through the ranks of the East India Company amid considerable challenges. Temple, who served as Lawrence's secretary, provides personal anecdotes and insights into Lawrence's work ethic, character traits such as energy and resolution, and his deep understanding of Indian society. The narrative sets up the central themes of endurance and self-taught leadership, emphasizing how Lawrence's experiences and virtues made him a pivotal figure in the history of British colonial administration in India.
