Part of Assouline’s special series, The Ultimate Collection, which is an homage to the art of luxury bookmaking. Books in the collection are hand-bound using traditional techniques, with color plates hand-tipped on art-quality paper; each page of this limited-edition series bears the unique imprint of the artisan. Complimentary white gloves and signature canvas tote bag are included with each purchase from Assouline’s Ultimate Collection.

Abu Dhabi Before 1971 is a rare and compelling visual record of an emirate on the cusp of profound transformation. Featuring extraordinary vintage photography, the book captures everyday life in Abu Dhabi before unification, before the discovery of oil reshaped its destiny, and before modernity accelerated at breathtaking speed. These images—many seldom seen—offer an intimate window into a world defined by resilience, community, tradition, and an enduring relationship with land and sea.

With a foreword written by His Highness Sheikh Mansour Bin Zayed Al Nahyan, Vice President of the State, Deputy Prime Minister, and Chairman of the Presidential Court, and a deeply insightful and elegantly crafted text by Jonathan Gornall, the book goes beyond documentation to provide context and meaning to this unique narrative. Gornall’s writing illuminates the social, cultural, and historical threads woven through the photographs, bringing clarity to a pivotal period in the emirate’s history. The unique historical photo collection featured in this edition is sourced from the National Library and Archives of the United Arab Emirates. This is a powerful edition that preserves memory while enriching understanding. Abu Dhabi Before 1971 is a testament to a way of life that laid the foundations for a nation.

Soft, Good Smelling, Cleans Great!
Size: 6 Fl Oz (Pack of 1), Style: Facial Cleanser
This is easily my favorite facial cleanser I have used TO DATE. The first thing I always notice with hygiene products is the scent, and you can trust me when I say it's the best smelling scent you'll recieve on any Male product. Scent - The best way to describe it would be Pine, vanilla, with a refreshing kick. It is SO nice! Cleansing - This is, surprisingly, one of the best facial cleansing products I've ever used. It goes on gently, and does not have that "burning" sensation that some products leave on your face. It washes off softly and leaves my face feeling VERY smooth. The only small problem I've run into is a little bit of dryness left on my cheeks, but my skin is VERY sensitive so it's understandable. A very small amount of moisturizer fixes that easily! Conclusion - It cleans my face very gently, and leaves it feeling clean, smooth, and hydrated! The scent is fantastic, unique, but not too strong. I recommend this to ANYONE! And would be an amazing gift!!!

Fantastic facial cleanser
Size: 6 Fl Oz (Pack of 1), Style: Facial Cleanser
This stuff is really good. I've been using it for a year now. I usually hate facial cleansers like Cetaphil because they dry your face out and smell like farmers soap. This one has a light musky smell and really makes you feel refreshed. I will keep buying this stuff as long as they keep making it.

Just buy some!
Size: 6 Fl Oz (Pack of 1), Style: Facial Cleanser
Have been looking for a new product to replace my previous expensive cleanser, and couldn't be happier with this. A little bit does the job and feels great. Along with the matching moisturizer it's a win win combination! 70 year old male.

Awesome

Might go to facial cleaner for every day use. All the products from marlowe are awesome no exception. The scent kind of has a slight pine to it. I have bought several times now
