Synopsis

""Reconnoitring In Abyssinia"" is a historical narrative written by Henry St. Clair Wilkins. The book recounts the events of a reconnaissance party that was sent ahead of the main body of the expeditionary field force in Abyssinia (modern-day Ethiopia) in 1867. The party was tasked with exploring the terrain, gathering information about the local people and their customs, and assessing the military capabilities of the Abyssinian army. Wilkins describes the challenges faced by the reconnaissance party, including difficult terrain, hostile encounters with local tribes, and the harsh climate. He also provides insight into the political situation in Abyssinia at the time, with rival factions vying for power and influence. The book offers a detailed account of the reconnaissance party's findings, including the location of key strategic points, the strength of the Abyssinian army, and the potential challenges that the main body of the expeditionary force would face. Overall, ""Reconnoitring In Abyssinia"" is a fascinating historical account that sheds light on a little-known chapter of British military history. It provides a valuable perspective on the challenges and dangers faced by early explorers and military expeditions in Africa, and offers insight into the complex political and social landscape of Abyssinia in the 19th century.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
