Pamphlet. 47 p.: double-page map; 21.5 cm. (C.W.M.E. research pamphlets ; 9) [Preparatory to a book with the same title published in 1964] `I spent over four months, from May to September 1961, in Uganda, Kenya, Tanganyika, and Zanzibar Island. My primary purpose was to try to understand the nature of East African Islam. I travelled extensively in the interior of the three mainland territories, but contented myself with sampling studies in order to determine the depth of the Islam of the neo-Muslims. The first feature which caught my attention was that there are no true villages among the Bantu. Each family group lives on its own plot of cultivation separated from its neighbours. The Zaramo, for instance, formed compact villages in the nineteenth century, but when the need that led to their formation was resolved they reverted to their dispersed homesteads. Similarly with the Nyika tribes. Only where the Swahili culture flourishes is the true village organization found. Lne hears much less drumming and dancing as a normal feature of life than in West Africa. In fact, there is a general lack of the joy one associates with African life. West Africans, in many cases at least, seem much more alive than the Bantu. In East Africa there is a lack of individual enterprise, and there are no trading communities like the Mande Dyula and the Hausa; hence Asiatics have concentrated trade into their hands. Communal enterprise too is deficient. There are few African inspired schools. They display a lack of ability to organize and co-operate easily on any wider social organization than the family.' (p. 7 f. -- written prior to unrest leading to independence in 1956) VG, stapled, in orig. garnet on white wrapper.…
