About this ebook
Originally published in 1921, this interesting book contains pages from the note-book of a district commissioner in British Somaliland, offering a fascinating and unique insight into the area during the British occupation. Many of these earliest books, particularly those dating back to the 1900s and before, are now extremely scarce and increasingly expensive. We are republishing these classic works in affordable, high quality, modern editions, using the original text and artwork.
