Taschenbuch. Condition: Neu. Neuware - 'Unknown Ethiopia: New Light on Darkest Abyssinia' is a compelling firsthand account of a scientific and exploratory expedition into the heart of early 20th-century Ethiopia. Written by James E. Baum, a member of the Field Museum-Chicago Daily News expedition, the work offers a vivid window… into a nation then largely shrouded in mystery to the Western world. Baum details the grueling journey across rugged terrains, providing intricate observations of the diverse cultures, political landscapes, and natural history encountered during the trek.The narrative captures a pivotal moment in Ethiopian history, documenting encounters with local leaders, the vast biodiversity of the Abyssinian highlands, and the unique social structures of the period. Baum's writing balances the thrill of adventure with an investigative lens, seeking to shed light on a region often misunderstood by contemporary Western scholarship. This travelogue serves as both a historical record of African exploration and a fascinating study of the complexities of the Ethiopian Empire. Scholars of East African history and readers interested in the golden age of exploration will find 'Unknown Ethiopia: New Light on Darkest Abyssinia' to be an invaluable resource and an engrossing narrative of discovery.This work has been selected by scholars as being culturally important, and is part of the knowledge base of civilization as we know it.

Taschenbuch. Condition: Neu. Neuware - 'Savage Abyssinia' is a gripping firsthand account of the Field Museum-Chicago Daily News Abyssinian Expedition conducted during the mid-1920s. Written by explorer and journalist James E. Baum, this narrative provides a vivid exploration of the rugged landscapes and diverse cultures of Ethi…opia during a transformative period in its history. Baum chronicles the expedition's trek through remote territories, capturing the significant challenges of traversing high mountain plateaus and dense wilderness.The work offers detailed observations on the region's unique wildlife, natural history, and the complex social structures of its inhabitants.

Combining the elements of a scientific mission with the excitement of a classic travelogue, the book blends high-stakes adventure with ethnographic and geographical insights.
