In this paper we study the existence of strongly exposed points in unbounded closed and convex subsets of the positive cone of ordered Banach spaces and we prove the following characterization for the space l1(Γ): A Banach lattice X is order-isomorphic to l1(Γ) iff X has the Schur property and X* has quasi-interior positive elements.
