Each title in the series includes over 200 full-color photographs and provides a comprehensive and detailed description of the country together with all the essential data that tourists, business visitors or students are likely to require. Spectrum Guide to Ethiopia outlines the exquisite range of experiences to be enjoyed in this astonishing land -- from the rock churches of Lalibela to the burning, eroded furnace of Danakil Depression; from the mountain monasteries of the Tigray region to the awe-some splendor of the Blue Nile Falls. Illustrated with more than 200 full-color photographs.
I think it goes without saying by this point, but this is by far the best book you could buy about travel in Ethiopia, I've read it about 3 times over now and I still really enjoy it. Theres not much out there about travel to Ethiopia, but even if there was, this book would stand head and shoulders above the rest
