A logistics masterpiece in the middle of nowhere (1867-68)
Did you know that in 1868 Abyssinia (now known as Ethiopia) was invaded by the British in a campaign as fearsome and as challenging as any the British army have faced?
It’s a fascinating and little-known Victorian era war – But why did it happen? In this video I ask collector and historian Ian Shapiro to explain more.
