The mind of Buganda

The mind of Buganda1971
About this book
This sourcebook collects documents from Buganda, both those originally in English and originally in Luganda, and presents them in English with clear editing and citations. The documents, from the letters Kabaka Mutesa I sent in the 19th century to post-independence materials marking the rise of Kabaka Yekka and political tensions between Buganda and Uganda, are excellent resources, particularly for anyone interested in teaching the history of Buganda from the 1870s to the 1960s. Together, these materials demonstrate Buganda's dynamic engagement with Britain, and to a lesser extent British officials' struggles to understand Buganda.
