Description
This publication answers fundamental questions of interest to a large segment of those interested in researching the history of the development of the stages of postal services in the early eras of the emirates before the establishment of the Union. It divides such services into two separate sections, in order to properly document their history, which played a key role in advancing the economy in the UAE, especially trade, from ancient times until the present. A comprehensive distinction is made between marine and air services, supported by unique photographs arranged according to the historical sequence of such stages. The book also addresses the history of postal services between Britain, India, and the Arab Gulf states, and the role of Sharjah Air Station until the establishment of the Union.
