About this book

"Scrapbooks compiled by Robert P. Skinner, U.S. Consul General at Marseilles, relating to his diplomatic mission to the court of Menelik II, Emperor of Abyssinia (now called Ethiopia) in 1903-04. One scrapbook consists of photographs with captions clipped from Skinner's book 'Abyssinia of To-Day' or handwritten by Mr. or Mrs. Skinner. The other scrapbooks consist of clippings from newspapers and a few magazines, most in English but some in other languages. A consular report on Abyssinia dated April 29, 1904 is also included"--The Library of Congress Guide to the Microform Collections in the Humanities and Social Sciences Division, online version.
