Items related to Sultans of Aden (Orient folio masterworks)
Sultans of Aden tells the gripping story of Captain Stafford Bettesworth Haines, the first British Governor of Aden from 1839-1854. Arriving in Aden in 1838, Haines found nothing but a barren headland, an abandoned port and 600 demoralised inhabitants. Through sheer force of personality, Haines turned Aden into a bustling entrepot of 20,000. This is a brilliantly told story of colonial rivalry, determination and, ultimately, of personal tragedy. A postscript by the last British adviser to the Sultans of Aden brings the story up to date.9781905299713
