Mohammed al fahim biography of christopher

Mohammed Al-Fahim's book, From Rags to Riches: A Story of Abu Dhabi, is a deeply moving, well-written account of the remarkable transformation of an impoverished, desert tribal people into a modern, prosperous state. Oil -- the "black gold" of the Gulf -- made this miracle possible in the space of a few decades. But it was also made possible by the courage and vision of strong Abu Dhabi political, business and educational leaders, most notably Sheikh Zayed bin Sultan Al-Nahyan, the longtime ruler of Abu Dhabi and president of the United Arab Emirates.

Al-Fahim's detailed personal account was a revelation to me of a world barely known in the West and gladly left behind by those who had to live in it. Demographic statistics cannot begin to do justice to the reality.
