Reference?

edit

Does anyone know of a reference (book, monograph, article) for this very interesting analysis? (i.e. the connection between Baker's account and British ill-disposition against Bunyoro)

The Khedive sent a British explorer, Samuel Baker, to raise the Egyptian flag over Bunyoro. The Banyoro resisted this attempt, and Baker had to fight a desperate battle to secure his retreat. Baker regarded the resistance as an act of treachery, and he denounced the Banyoro in a book that was widely read in Britain. Later British Empire builders arrived in Uganda with a predisposition against Bunyoro, which eventually would cost the kingdom half its territory until the "lost counties" were restored to Bunyoro after independence.
