Wright's goal is to have learners quickly master the basics of ancient Ethiopic by breaking the grammar down into manageable, intuitive portions, using familiar texts, minimizing technical jargon, and avoiding the use of transliteration. Exercises come straight from Scripture, 1 Enoch, and Jubilees. Everything necessary---grammar, readings, exercises, and a lexicon---is included in this single volume. 368 pages, softcover from Zondervan.
