- Information
Description
Ethiopia, legendary home of the Queen of Sheba who travelled to Jerusalem to meet Solomon, resting-place of the Ark of the Covenant and battleground of the great emperors from Ezana in the 4th century AD to Haile Selassie in modern times, has inspired many travellers and writers since time immemorial.
Recently few have journeyed there or, indeed, have any conception of the extraordinary cultural treasures that await visitors.
Stuart Munro-Hay knows Ethiopia intimately, having lived and researched there over many years.
He has produced the first truly comprehensive guide to the monuments of this beautiful, culture-steeped country, as well as offering a literary companion.
Here is a guide to Ethiopia’s architecture, geography, peoples, art and history, embracing all the major sites of the land over the ages.
It will become the classic reference guide.
