About this product

Product Information

A vivid eye-witness account of the total transformation of a Bedouin society into a country with the world's highest per capita income within only 30 years. The author speaks with great frankness about his own life and career and about the role of the British in his country. Born in 1948, in Abu Dhabi, Mohammed Al Fahim knew dreadful poverty for years before fabulous oil wealth transformed his country forever. He grew up in the ruler's palace, barefoot like his playmates, now senior figures in the United Arab Emirates. Mohammed skilfully weaves the story of his own successful business career with that of the development of Abu Dhabi to which he himself has made a significant contribution.

      An interesting read.

      First browsed this book last year when on a visit to Abu Dhabi, came home to Lancashire UK and bought a copy on Ebay, it's a great, I believe, a true story, still browsing !.
