"The French scholar Arnauld d'Abbadie and his brother Antoine spent many years in Ethiopia where they travelled widely studying the geography, traditions, and languages of the country. Although Arnauld remained over twelve years - hence, the title of this work - only the first volume, covering his stay in the country from 1838 to 1841, was published." - [Pankhurst: 19] A very nice copy in the publisher's grey wrappers.
