Eight years after his death, the memoirs of Walter Chichele Plowden (1820–60) were published in Britain. As the first British consul appointed to Abyssinia, Plowden was in a unique position to record contemporary local history, and this book contains his richly detailed accounts of all levels of Abyssinian society.
