Default Aden and the Protectorate

The last posting of this message has disappeared for some reason so will send again.
My latest book on the Military and Police Forces of the Arabian Gulf and the Gulf of Aden has just been published. It is published by Helion in the UK.
Based on the previous Armed Forces of South Arabian it has 32 new photos
and heaps of art work. It is called:

The Military and Police Forces of the Gulf States Volume 3: The Aden Protectorate 1839-1967

https://www.helion.co.uk/military-hi...a8d936147d3d3d

There is new text for the First World War, Royal Naval Air Service, RAF post Second World War armoured cars, RAF air stations, RN and the Withdrawal from Aden and RN.

Regards,
Cliff Lord

Hi Cliff.

This book is online with covers as volume 3 and 4 but there is also a volume 3 which has a different cover and a different subtitle (bahrain kuwait qatar). It's a bit confusing to me, maybe I am being dumb, is there more than one series of books?

I have found Vols 1, 2 and a volume for the smaller states on ebay. Not ordered yet as I want to make sure I am not doubling up on previous editions.

Cheers,

Phil

There was a but of confusion at Helion. I told them about the numbering but looks they did not take off the old numbers. The books that have been completed so far are:
Vol 1 Trucial States & United Arab Emirates
Vol 2 Oman
Vol 3 Aden & The Protectorates
Vol 4 Kuwait, Bahrain and Qatar. (Not published yet and only 90 percent finished).
Vol 5 Just started a book on the British in the Persian/Arabian Gulf.

Thank you for clarifying that for me, Cliff, it's much appreciated.
