ህይወቴና የኢትዮጲያ እርምጃ

Hiywotena Ye'Ityopp'ya Irmijja (ሕይወቴና የኢትዮጵያ እርምጃ)

is the authoritative, two-volume autobiography written by Emperor Haile Selassie I. Volume One was drafted while the monarch was living in exile in Bath, England, and chronicles his life from birth in 1892 through his early regency and the 1936 Fascist Italian invasion. Volume Two recounts the liberation of the nation and his restoration to the throne. Bypassing standard external narratives, this work provides a firsthand perspective on 20th-century international diplomacy, the orchestration of Ethiopia's first written constitution, and his sweeping infrastructure modernization programs.
