Subject: East Africa map request




I researcher would like to either borrow a hard copy or obtain a high quality scan of a map reproduced in poor quality in JSTOR. It is for use in GIS. There are also data tables on the reverse side and he would also like a copy of those since evidently they were not included in JSTOR.

Please let me know off list if you are able to assist.



Also, please inform me if you know of any earlier population maps of East Africa, specifically Uganda (we are aware of the 1948 East Africa map at Library of Congress and Uganda ones listed with single library holdings in WorldCat from 1972, 1935/6, and 1969). He is interested in any maps from 1911 -2002.



Thanks,
