FIRST EDITION. Arabic issue. Original colour-printed map (97 x 121 cm; folding away to 24 x 17 cm) folding between publisher's pale blue paper covers printed in black, white and red with the arms of UAE. With two inset maps, one showing the oil concessions. An excellent copy. First Arabic edition of this very scarce map, issued…simultaneously with an English edition. At the time of publication - just two years after federation - this was the most detailed map of the UAE, and as such, it is a landmark in the cartography of the region. The map represents the borders of the UAE just before the Treaty of Jeddah was ratified in 1974. Here, the UAE maintains a land border with Qatar and possesses territory that was subsequently awarded to Saudi Arabia. Infrastructure such as the federation's earliest motorway system, oil fields and pipelines are included. The UAE's pearling grounds are highlighted in pink. Naturally, Abu Dhabi, Dubai, Sharjah, and Ras Al Khaimah are all identified, as are the settlements around the Liwa Oasis, the ancestral home of the ruling Al Nahyan family. In addition, there are inset maps putting the UAE in its regional context and a table of oil production and companies involved in that industry. The compilers were Ezzeddin Ibrahim Mustafa and Muhammad Mursi Abd' Allah. The Egyptian-born Ezzeddin Ibrahim settled in Abu Dhabi in 1968 and served as a cultural adviser to Sheikh Zayed. "As a mark of recognition for his significant contribution to the cultural life of the capital he was granted citizenship of the UAE. During the 1970s, he was a key figure in many of the initiatives that shaped the modern emirate. He proposed the need for, and aided in, the establishment of the Cultural Foundation in Abu Dhabi, which comprises the National Archives, the National Library and the Institute of Culture and Art" (obituary on the National News Abu Dhabi website). Muhammad Mursi Abd' Allah was a former director of the Centre for Documentation and Research, Abu Dhabi, and an early historian of the UAE, writing The United Arab Emirates: A Modern History (1978). In his foreword to that book, R. A. Serjeant noted that Mursi had spent nearly a quarter of a century in the Gulf States and remarked on his familiarity with colloquial Gulf Arabic and involvement in the mapping of Abu Dhabi.

The first and hitherto most detailed map of the newly-formed United Arab Emirates, showing the undefined border with Saudi Arabia and the early border with Oman, each later to be contested, and featuring the earliest… highway system and oil fields and pipelines. In the Gulf, all UAE pearling fields are highlighted in pink. Also marked are the crucial seaports at Abu Dhabi, Dubai, Sharjah, and Ras Al Khaimah, and the Liwa villages, the ancestral homeland of the Al Nahyan royal family of Abu Dhabi.
