Geat book - shame about the cover
I travelled in Ethiopia between 19/12/03 and 4/1/04 - just after this new edition came out. The cover is boring and so un-Ethiopia but the content was very accurate and uptodate.

Some good "legends" and local stories. Recommend that if going to Ethiopia you also get hold of a copy of Graham Hancock's "Lords of poverty" - easilt attainablein Addis Abba -even if you can't get it on Amazon !

Buy the Bradt Guide: it's much better
This book's a reasonable guide, but is eclipsed by the brilliantly written and hugely informative Bradt Guide. We took both books to Ethiopia (09/2006) and found the Bradt one to be far superior.

Excellent guide book
I spent a month in Ethiopia (March 2004) and found this book to be both accurate and informative. I would recommend it to everybody. Ethiopia is a most fascinating country and definitely worth a visit. This book provides all the information to take away the worries and hassles and makes you really enjoy your holiday.
