A Muganda in Europe Sarah Mukiibi

A Muganda in Europe is an English reproduction of a book, Omuganda mu Bulaaya, originally written in the Luganda language in 1927, by a Chief from the Kingdom of Buganda, Uganda, John Nsubuga ( 1894-1933). The book narrates his journey to Europe undertaken between 1926-1927 by ferry, ship, and railroad. Through the unpaved roads of Africa, vast seas and deserts he traveled to Europe on a mission for his Kingdom. The events that led the book into the hands of its translator are as fascinating as the journey itself. Spirits of legends never die!
