John Wilkinson thought he knew Sultan well, but his friend and mentor surprised him when he spoke Swahili at the souk. John's errand at the ancient marketplace becomes a quest for knowledge about Oman's link to the romantic African islands of Tanzania. Sultan introduces John to a friend who spent most of his youth in Zanzibar during the tumultuous times surrounding the 1964 revolution. In conversations with John, Suleiyum and Sultan set out to document their years of research, interviews, and recollections of the Sultanate of Zanzibar. This story describes three important phases of the history of Zanzibar: the time of the Omani Sultans and the British protectorate, the fight for independence, and post- independence and the revolution of 1964 as told by students of the subject and a witness to the events.
