With the Abyssinians in Somaliland (Classic Reprint)1kg Limited, 2017 M06 3 - 320 páginas Excerpt from With the Abyssinians in Somaliland N my return to London, on the 8th May, 1904, after accompanying the Abyssinians in Somali land, I was sometimes asked by those of my friends who had noticed my absence where I had been and what I had been doing. A satisfactory answer was beyond the limits of a casual conversation, so I recommend those inquirers, and all others who are interested in Abyssinia, to read this book, which embodies Major Jennings's diary of our expedition. He has well described the operations in the field, and I venture to think that the information he has collected regarding the folk-lore, the characteristics, and customs of the Abyssinians will prove of great.
