The War having concluded he stayed east and took up the position as assistant political officer in Iraq until 1922. It was under his next post as the Finance Minister to the Sultan of Muscat and Oman, Taimur bin Feisal that Thomas is most famously remembered. Lawrence of Arabia famously purported in 1929 that the only way to cross the Rub' Al Khali also known as the Empty Quarter (a barren expanse of desert covering 250,000 square miles of Saudi Arabia, Oman, United Arab Emirates and Yeoman) was by an airship. However after a tortuous 58 day long expedition Thomas and his team reached the sea at Doha, the unforgiving desert having not claimed a single life. Thomas is the author of two books Arabia Felix (1932) and The Arabs: The Epic Life Story of a People Who Have Left Their Deep Impress On The World (1937) The University of Cambridge holds in their library nine boxes of 'manuscripts, articles, book reviews, lectures, notes, correspondence and maps' as well as a copy of a film made by Thomas in Arabia circa 1928/1929 and even a portrait of him by Walter Westley Russell

An oil on board, portrait of Samuel Redgate reportedly. 7¼ by 9ins. In a gilt frame. Samuel Redgate 27th July 1810 – 13th April 1851 was a professional cricketer who played for Nottingham Cricket Club at Nottinghamshire County Cricket Club from 1830s until 1846 and was a renowned right arm fast bowler amongst the most feared of the period. It is a generally held conclusion that the speed of his bowling led to the introduction of batting pads with some of his bowling having caused serious leg injuries. Redgate played a total of 79 first class matches and took 426 known wickets.
