""To Abyssinia: Through An Unknown Land"" is a travelogue written by C. H. Stigand, an English explorer who journeyed through East Africa in the early 20th century. The book describes Stigand's travels through the unknown and often dangerous territories of modern-day Kenya and Ethiopia, as he sought to reach the remote kingdom of Abyssinia (now known as Ethiopia). Along the way, Stigand encounters a wide range of people and cultures, from nomadic tribes to powerful rulers, and he provides detailed descriptions of their customs, languages, and beliefs. The book also includes vivid descriptions of the landscapes and wildlife of East Africa, as well as Stigand's own reflections on the challenges and rewards of exploration. Overall, ""To Abyssinia: Through An Unknown Land"" offers a fascinating glimpse into a little-known corner of the world at a time of great change and upheaval.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations. Because we believe this work is culturally important, we have made it available as part of our commitment for protecting, preserving, and promoting the world's literature in affordable, high quality, modern editions, that are true to their original work.
