Question

What reading would add Red Sea and Persian Gulf coverage to a book focused mainly on the Mediterranean and Middle East?

Short answer

Eastern Fleet is a decent source for those areas.

Notes

The question comes from a reader whose maritime history covers the Mediterranean well but gives little attention to the Red Sea or Persian Gulf. Eastern Fleet is recommended as a decent source for those areas. The brief recommendation directs further study without claiming that one book exhausts either regional theater.
