About the Author

Bahru Zewde is Professor of History at Addis Ababa University.

Includes the name: Bahru Zewde

Disambiguation Notice:

Bahru Zewde is Ethiopian and his name follows the normal Ethiopian naming practice. His given name is Bahru - he is called Professor Bahru. To distinguish him from other Bahrus you add his fathers given name, Zewde. (If further distinction is needed you can add the grandfathers name). He should not be called Professor Zewde as that would refer to his father. Ethiopian names are generally written in library catalogues as given name + fathers name [so Bahru Zewde (no commas)] as the name should sort on Bahru during indexing.

This book is more of a political and economic history of Ethiopia as opposed to a general history but does describe the major events in fairly good detail for an introductory book.
