Ethiopia - Travellers' Handbook (Travel Guide)

Absolutely stunning book. It has made me think of all I missed and reinforced my determination to return to Ethiopia. The book is a masterpiece, a masterclass on what every handbook should be - JOANNA LUMLEY OBE FRGS. This is a really excellent guidebook which far outstrips all others in its field for its scope, detail and attractive presentation - RICHARD SNAILHAM FOR THE SCIENTIFIC EXPLORATION SOCIETY. Three decades of interest and multiple trips to Ethiopia are the backbone of Jenner’s guidebook - and it shows. Jam-packed with itineraries, ideas and concise accounts of the country’s history, flora and fauna, it tells you everything you need to know. Informative, inspiring and comprehensive - TRAVEL AFRICA: The world’s only magazine dedicated to exploring Africa. Trevor Jenner’s book is a well-researched and comprehensive guide for anyone travelling to Ethiopia with valuable insights into the wildlife, culture and history of this fascinating country - NATURETREK: Wildlife holidays worldwide. Probably the best modern travel book ever published - for any country! It has the rarely achieved quality of being both a warm and colourful introduction for the first-time traveller and the thoroughness for the returning in-depth explorer. It covers all aspects of this diverse and fascinating country, with its much varied regions, its history, culture, people, nature and fauna. It is a book to keep for life. Praise for Jenner, master of travel book art - ARILD MAELEND, Norway. This is a truly excellent guide. When it comes to descriptions of people and nature, Jenner’s book wins hands down over the big brand guidebooks. I’m a frequent visitor to Ethiopia but I learnt a lot from this supremely well-researched guide, which will also appeal to first time visitors. Well illustrated, clear writing, great maps and a wealth of useful information. Note also the companion volume on the Mammals of Ethiopia which is illustrated with beautiful quality photos throughout - JAMES FIREBRACE, UK.

Trevor Jenner is English and has had a multi-faceted career that has entailed a host of travelling throughout the globe. He setup and ran a tour company operating specialist tours to Ethiopia. In three decades of exploring Ethiopia he has travelled to all points of the compass - from the historical north to the tribal south, from the dry deserts of the east to the humid forests of the west, from the depths of the Afar Depression to the heights of the Simien Mountains. He has covered them all - many times. He visits Ethiopia regularly, leads the occasional specialist tour and loves Ethiopia and its people. His infectious enthusiasm and knowledge is evident throughout the book.
