This book, with its accompanying tapes, is an adjunct to the Foreign Service Institute's Luganda Basic Course. It is in the form of a self-instructional program of approximately 20 hours duration and will be useful especially to those students who have a serious interest in mastering the tonal system of the language.
A draft of the program was tested in Monroe, New York, with a group of Peace Corps trainers whose reactions were collected and transmitted to the authors by Ruth E. Franklin. Claudia P. Wilds also supplied a detailed critique of the programming.
Earl W. Stevick, Professor of Linguistics at the Foreign Service Institute, planned and wrote the program with the exception of the Luganda portions, which were provided by Frederick K. Kamoga. The work was undertaken at the suggestion of Allan M. Kulakow of the United States Peace Corps.
Frederick ff. Krug and John Dewees contributed photographs. Tapes were produced in the language laboratory of the Foreign Service Institute under the direction of Cary Alley. Recording technicians were Arthur Young and Jose Ramirez. Typing was done by Irma C. Ponce and Linda E. Terrio. Carolyn Jackson and Marjorie Purchase assisted with the illustrations.
