Ethiopia in The War That Came Early
Abyssinia was a zone of combat between Britain and Italy. The fighting between the two was a desultory secondary front of World War II. Campaigns in that theater were on so small a scale (especially compared with the fighting in the European mainland) that it was considered safe for civilians to travel through the combat zone.
