Drawing on a range of 18th and 19th-century travel books and scholarship in literature, history, geography, and anthropology, this book studies the Romantic obsession with the landscapes of Ethiopia. It explores the effects of problems of credit worthiness, and the nebulous epistemological claims of 'curiosity' on the status of travel writing.
