Muted Memories: Heritage-Making, Bagamoyo, and the East African Caravan Trade
Jan Lindstroem
This book examines the centrality of the East African Caravan Trade to Bagamoyo, a Tanzanian port town on the Indian Ocean, and explores the way that this history was silenced when Bagamoyo was instead branded as a slave route town in 2006 in an attempt to qualify it for the UNESCO World Heritage List.
