The late Sheikh Maktoum bin Rashid Al Maktoum, the former Vice President and Prime Minister of the UAE and Ruler of Dubai, succeeded his father in 1990 and died unexpectedly at the beginning of 2006. In this popular work, Noor Ali Rashid illustrates how Sheikh Maktoum continued the vision and work of the Father of Dubai and provides an intriguing insight into his private life. The late President of the UAE, Sheikh Zayed bin Sultan Al Nahyan, graciously wrote the foreword to this book.
Noor Ali Rashid's unique collection of photographs spans half a century and earned him the title of "Royal Photographer". Since pre-Federation days, Noor Ali Rashid was the official photographer to the rulers of the Trucial States, which later merged to form the United Arab Emirates. He was often called upon to take pictures of state ceremonies as well as formal and informal portraits of the rulers and their families, and has also taken historic images during official visits of foreign dignitaries to the UAE and during rulers' visits overseas.
