Reconnoitring In Abyssinia: A Narrative Of The Proceedings Of The Reconnoitring Party, Prior To The Arrival Of The Main Body Of The Expeditionary Field Force is a book written by Henry St. Clair Wilkins. The book is a detailed account of the author's experience as part of a reconnaissance party that was sent to Abyssinia (present-day Ethiopia) to gather information about the area before the arrival of the main body of the expeditionary field force. The book provides a comprehensive description of the geography, climate, and people of Abyssinia, as well as the political and social conditions prevailing in the region at the time. The author also describes the challenges and dangers that the reconnaissance party faced, including hostile encounters with local tribes, difficult terrain, and harsh weather conditions.Through his narrative, Wilkins provides insights into the military tactics and strategies employed by the reconnaissance party, as well as the broader goals and objectives of the expeditionary force. The book also includes illustrations and maps that help to visualize the terrain and the movements of the party.Overall, Reconnoitring In Abyssinia is a fascinating account of a little-known military expedition in the late 19th century. It provides a unique perspective on the history and culture of Abyssinia, as well as the challenges and triumphs of military reconnaissance in a challenging and unfamiliar environment.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
