Uganda - History of Its Early Days and the Ugandan Bush War

Kelly Mass

Sinopsis

The individuals who ultimately transformed the landscape were likely Bantu speakers, whose gradual yet inexorable expansion became the dominant force across much of Africa south of the Sahara Desert.

Their agricultural expertise and mastery of iron-forging technology allowed for the clearing of land and sustained the burgeoning population. As early as 400 BCE, they not only engaged in farming but also commenced the domestication of goats, poultry, and cattle. This agricultural prowess not only reshaped the physical terrain but also influenced the displacement of indigenous hunter-gatherer communities, pushing them into more remote mountainous regions for habitation.

Simultaneously, Bantu-speaking metallurgists achieved significant advancements in iron smelting, producing medium-grade carbon steel in pre-heated forced-draft furnaces by the fourth century BCE. While these innovations primarily unfolded southwest of the present Ugandan borders, the mining and smelting of iron became prevalent in various regions of the country shortly thereafter.

Lady Barker in New Zealand

Mary-Anne Barker, Amberley Ember

***NEW ZEALAND’S LITTLE HOUSE ON THE PRAIRIE*** 
Two New Zealand Classics—now available with an introduction by Amberley Ember. 
The year is 1865. 34-year-old Annie, freshly married, sets sail for New Zealand where she will serve as a helpmeet for her second husband, Fred. They live in Christchurch until they can build their house in the sheep-farming Canterbury High Country. Soon, Lady Annie Barker is tending to dogs and chickens, learning how to boil potatoes and galloping side-saddle on her horse through the fresh, miasma-free air. Just when the newlyweds begin to feel settled, they are caught in a great snowstorm, and swindled in a land deal. 
This is two books in one: Station Life in New Zealand (1870) and Station Amusements (1873).
