<p>We are fortunate indeed that so many of His Imperial Majesty, Haile Sellassie's words have been saved. Many documents were destroyed during the Communist revolution (1974-1975), which vainly tried to erase 3,500 years of tradition. However, so great is the international legacy of His Majesty that many records were preserved by a grateful world, including his speeches during the period 1930 to 1974. These speeches are remarkable in that they provide a vivid panorama, through His Majesty's eyes, of the problems and challenges confronting a young Ethiopian king: national development, foreign aggression and invasion, war and resistance. ....

<p>These speeches portray the breadth of the Emperor's vision. They detail the persistence, the determination and the unflagging drive with which he pursued the application of "modern Ethiopianism," to which history cannot fail to testify. The Emperor's idealism, coupled with his insistence on transforming his country, both on the domestic and international fronts, his courage in the face of adversity, his unchallenged perspicacity, his keen sense in evaluating world events, his unfailing respect for principles, and his abiding faith in humanity should make this volume a ready-reference on the history of modern Ethiopia.
