Wow, I'm amazed to see it cited. I assumed it was a long-forgotten treasure (and it is a treasure; it revolutionized my understanding of irregular and asymmetric warfare, plus he writes exceptionally well).

To be clear, I don't know that the original is available anywhere online, paywalled or not. I think britannica.com (which has enough free articles that I rarely worry about the paywall) only has current articles, but I could be wrong.

EDIT: It is online, apparently: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=11147725

Googling takes me to

"Guerrilla warfare Written by: T.E. Lawrence"

on Britannica's site, followed by
