To Abyssinia: Through An Unknown Land is a travelogue written by C. H. Stigand, an English explorer who embarked on a journey to Abyssinia (modern-day Ethiopia) in 1909. The book details Stigand's experiences as he travels through the uncharted territories of East Africa, encountering various tribes and cultures along the way. Stigand's account provides a vivid description of the landscape, wildlife, and people he encounters, as well as the challenges he faces during his journey. He describes the difficulties of navigating through the rugged terrain, crossing rivers and mountains, and dealing with hostile tribes. The book also sheds light on the political and social conditions of Abyssinia at the time, including the country's complex history, tribal conflicts, and the influence of European colonial powers. Stigand provides an insightful analysis of the country's culture, religion, and customs, and offers an interesting perspective on the interactions between the Abyssinians and the outside world. Overall, To Abyssinia: Through An Unknown Land is a fascinating account of a daring expedition into a largely unexplored region of Africa, and provides valuable insights into the history and culture of Abyssinia.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
