Narrative Of A Journey Through Abyssinia In 1862-1863 is a travelogue written by Henry Dufton, first published in 1867. The book chronicles Dufton's journey through Abyssinia, which is now known as Ethiopia, during the mid-19th century. The journey was undertaken as part of a British diplomatic mission to the region, and Dufton was tasked with accompanying the British envoy on his travels. Dufton's travelogue provides a detailed account of the people, culture, and landscape of Abyssinia. He describes the various tribes and kingdoms that he encounters, as well as the political and social structures of the region. He also provides insights into the local customs, religion, and daily life of the people he meets. In addition to his observations of Abyssinia, Dufton also includes details of his own experiences during the journey. He describes the challenges of traveling through difficult terrain, the dangers posed by wild animals and hostile tribes, and the hardships of living in unfamiliar and often inhospitable environments. Overall, Narrative Of A Journey Through Abyssinia In 1862-1863 offers a fascinating glimpse into a little-known region of Africa during a time of great change and upheaval. It is a valuable resource for historians, anthropologists, and anyone interested in the history and culture of Ethiopia and the wider African continent.With An Appendix On The Abyssinian Captives Question.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
