🎓 Reddit experts on ethiopia history books
The comments and opinions expressed on this page are written exclusively by redditors. To provide you with the most relevant data, we sourced opinions from the most knowledgeable Reddit users based the total number of upvotes and downvotes received across comments on subreddits where ethiopia history books are discussed. For your reference and for the sake of transparency, here are the specialists whose opinions mattered the most in our ranking.
Here's the rough outline of what we know as historians of Africa:
See, for example, Harold Marcus, A History of Ethiopia upd. ed., (2002); Richard Pankhurst, The Ethiopians: A History, (2001); and a variety of histories of Christianity that treat it in chapters. General histories of Africa, including Robert Collins's and Kevin Shillington's, also spend time with Ethiopia and do so fairly well for overviews.
[Edit: I tried to clarify a few things. I typed this in a very stream-of-consciousness way, so I apologize.]
I suggest picking a country or time period you're more interested in. I've read more book about the horn of Africa; For example
The Oromo of Ethiopia: 1570-1860
or The Conquest of Abyssinia: Futuh Al Habasa This one is pretty interesting because it is actually written by someone that witnessed these historical events.
Ibn Battuta is a Berber who lived in the 14th century and travel through west Africa, north Africa and the horn of Africa. He wrote about his travels, you might want to look into him.
I would be happy to offer you an entire list. But, when it comes to military operations, I simply do not know anything else than this: Great Lakes Conflagration.
Ah yes: for 1-2 examples of the Ugandan attempts a mimicking the fire-force-tactics, one might want to reach back upon African MiGs, Volume 2
I read A History of Modern Ethiopia in a class I was taking on North-East Africa. I'd never really read any history about anywhere in Africa (beyond the slave trade), so I found the book really interesting.
My suggestion: a book on the madness and wonder of 19th century African exploration. Specifically The White Nile, one of the great reads of the last century.
Not only may some of the men bring to mind Sir Malcolm, but the tale of Mr. and Mrs. Baker may remind one of the stern stuff of which (some) Victorian Englishwomen were made.
In fact, I think I'll now read Baker's own memoir.
I can't find Alexander Moore. Did you mean Alan Moorehead? https://www.amazon.com/White-Nile-Alan-Moorehead/dp/0060956399
i read a wonderful book about a guy travelling in yemen and ethiopia, it was about his experience with khat and the culture there, it's a very social communal bonding plant and has a long history of usage.
another racist policy related to immigration, rather than the actual plant i'm guessing.
Eating The Flowers Of Paradise
Sorry that it took me 5 days to make this reply, but I honor my promises (thanks to /u/nixons_nose). So here are the other books:
I hope these books will help you. ;)
EDIT: Added bullets and a link.
Hahle Selassie also made some real progress in ending slavery in Ethiopia, though he hadn't quite finished by the time Italy invaded. He passed several transition type laws, such as children of slaves being born free and forbidding slaves from being bought and sold, with his memoirs indicating that he meant these as interim steps to eradicating slavery within the borders of Ethiopia.
