Unlike some other reproductions of classic texts (1) We have not
used OCR(Optical Character Recognition), as this leads to bad
quality books with introduced typos. (2) In books where there are
images such as portraits, maps, sketches etc We have endeavoured to
keep the quality of these images, so they represent accurately the
original artefact. Although occasionally there may be certain
imperfections with these old texts, we feel they deserve to be made
available for future generations to enjoy.

The first decades of the twentieth century were years of dramatic
change in Zanzibar, a time when the social, economic, and political
lives of island residents were in incredible flux, framed by the
abolition of slavery, the introduction of colonialism, and a tide
of urban migration. "Pastimes and Politics" explores the era from
the perspective of the urban poor, highlighting the numerous and
varied ways that recently freed slaves and other immigrants to town
struggled to improve their individual and collective lives and to
create a sense of community within this new environment. In this
study Laura Fair explores a range of cultural and social practices
that gave expression to slaves' ideas of emancipation, as well as
how such ideas and practices were gendered.
"Pastimes and Politics" examines the ways in which various cultural
practices, including taarab music, dress, football, ethnicity, and
sexuality, changed during the early twentieth century in relation
to islanders' changing social and political identities. Professor
Fair argues that cultural changes were not merely reflections of
social and political transformations. Rather, leisure and popular
culture were critical practices through which the colonized and
former slaves transformed themselves and the society in which they
lived.
Methodologically innovative and clearly written, "Pastimes and
Politics" is accessible to specialists and general readers alike.
It is a book that should find wide use in courses on African
history, urbanization, popular culture, gender studies, or
emancipation.
It is the year 1812. Portents of doom strike fear in the hearts of
those who dare to live on the Ohio frontier. From the darkening of
the sun to the earth rumbling beneath their feet, with the threat
of Indian hostilities in the West and British invasion from the
North, many are threatening to pull up stakes and return east. One
man stood in the way, John Johnston, who by sheer strength of will
and character sought to put a halt to this unstoppable tidal wave
of fear. If there be any truer measure of a man than by what he
does, it must be by what he gives. John Johnston was about to find
out just how much he had to give...
