About this ebook
This is the second installment in the Alexander Co. Abroad series, meant to be a companion photo book to “Living in the UAE”, volume 1. It’s filled with pictures taken in the Emirate of Abu Dhabi, the largest Emirate in the United Arab Emirates and home to the nation’s capital city. With firsthand pictures from the Moreeb sand dune found in the world’s largest sand desert the Rub' al Khali, known as “the Empty Quarter”, to the beautiful nature reserve island of Sir Bani Yas and the modern capital city also named Abu Dhabi. A book of few words as the pictures do most of the talking.

After several years of living abroad he used previous online posts to help write a series of books called "Alexander County Abroad" with various subtitles to describe each location. The title comes from the county he was born in, Alexander, a small rural county in western N.C. primarily a farming region. A place where most residents rarely venture pass state lines and never travel out of the country or "lord have mercy" a Muslim Country.
