A very hard-to-find compilation of all the addresses given by Sheikh Zayed to the opening ceremonies of the UAE’s Federal Council, starting from its creation in 1972 until 1990. Text in English and French, translated from the original Arabic. Rare: published in 1990 by the United Arab Emirates government, and never released for public sale. Hardback,  with original jacket. 310 pages. In very good condition with some minor edgewear to the jacket. Clean inside with no writing or marking. A valuable addition to any library of books on the UAE.
