Preferred Citation: Marcus, Harold G. A History of Ethiopia. If this book stimulates scholarship and amplifies our knowledge of Ethiopian history, then it will have proved its worth beyond merely being a guide through a complex and difficult story. This achievement is my great hope.

Preferred Citation: Marcus, Harold G. Berkeley: University of California Press, c. org/ark:/13030/ft109nb00g/.

Overall I loved the book, and would highly recommend it to those wanting an introduction and overview of Ethiopian history. I also recommend Marcus' other books, especially his biography of Haile Selassie.
