description: Excerpt from The Ethiopic Its Sources, Development, and Present FormDuring the summer of 1914 I examined every Ethiopic liturgical manuscript in the museums and libraries of Europe (including those in Petrograd), with the exception Of those in France, which on ac count Of war became inaccessible. Among the many manuscripts examined, not one was found to represent the present form of the Ethiopic liturgy. Consequently my own manuscript, being the only one Of the present Ethiopic service known to me, forms the basis of this work, the other manuscripts being used to represent the development of the liturgy at different stages.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
