Sheikh Sultan: Life and Times is the eighth title in this highly successful and award-winning Royal Collection series by Noor Ali Rashid. With numerous photographs taken between 1958 and the present day, the book captures key moments in the emirate's development and shows His Highness Sheikh Sultan's relentless dedication to the promotion of Arab and Islamic culture. Besides the official recording of historical moments, Noor Ali was also there to capture less formal events, thus providing a very human portrait of Sharjah's Ruler.
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.
