Now into its fifth edition, for over a decade Ethiopia has become the definitive source of information on a country rich in culture, history and dramatic scenery. The particular strength of the guide lies in African-expert Philip Briggs’s personal writing style. With plenty of down-to-earth advice on etiquette and safe travelling and his enthusiasm for this little understood country this guide is an inspiration for those planning a trip. A recent research trip has also expanded the number of places covered countrywide, including detailed coverage of the Danakil Desert.
