Aden

This new edition of Barry Stewart Hunter's epic end-of-empire tale marks the 50th anniversary of the revolution in Aden, a British Crown Colony strategically sited at the mouth of the Red Sea. In November 1967, following a prolonged and bloody insurgency backed by the USSR, the Union flag was lowered for the last time. A ravishing story of love, loss, ambition and betrayal set against the backdrop of revolution, Aden is the first fictional account of these landmark events in British colonial era history.
