Ham Mukasa, Uganda's Katikiro in England: Being the Official Account of His Visit to the Coronation of His Majesty King Edward VII, translated and edited by the Rev Ernest Millar (London: Hutchinson, 1904). This is the edition cited throughout this article. An abbreviated version, edited with rather heavy hand by Taban lo Liyon, was published in 1975 as Sir Apolo Kagwa Discovers Britain, in Heinemann's African Writers Series. The latter substitutes unattributed pictures of British scenes for Hatterley's photographs.

Ibid., p. 82. Herbert Louis Samuel, First Viscount Samuel (1870-1963), later high commissioner in Palestine under the British mandate, was then a young MP. He took a particular interest in African questions and had toured Uganda in 1902. On his return, he wrote and lectured on the Protectorate, illustrating his lecture to the Royal Society of Arts "with lantern slides from some of the many photographs I had taken." He spoke in the House of Commons on the Uganda Railway and was delighted at this opportunity to repay the Katihiro's hospitality. See Viscount Samuel, Memoirs (London: Cresset Press, 1945), pp. 33-37, 42; John Bowle, Viscount Samuel: A Biography (London: Victor Gollancz, 1957), pp.46-48; Journal of the Royal Society of Arts 51 (1903): 390-400. A footnote in the Memoirs refers to Uganda's Katihiro in England as "a frank and delightfully naïve picture of our civilization, as seen through the eyes of intelligent Africans who had never before been outside their own remote and isolated country" (p. 35).

Hattersley's educational work is in need of study and reassessment. Controversial at the time (Hattersley's resignation in 1913 was precipitated by disputes over the running of Mengo), it has been variously assessed since. See, for example, John V. Taylor, The Growth of the Church in Buganda (London: SCM Press, 1958), p93.
