Does anyone have a link or know where I can find the book by the great academia intellectual and author Muuse Xaaji Galaal. The title of the book is "Somali Pastoral Traditions", and I believe it was written in early 1960s. I found one page on a library website and this is how reads:

Your findings and professional research on this subject would be greatly appreciated!

I think what you have is likely part of this:

Here are his two major works:

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Musa_Haji_Ismail_Galal

The terminology and practice of Somali weather lore, astronomy, and astrology (1968)
Stars, seasons and weather in Somali pastoral traditions (1970)

Couldn't find anything available in print. There is a review of the '68 book in the Indiana University collection.

There's a program with Muse Xaji Ismail Galal that was recorded in 1966 and held by the British Library, only university student can access it though.

It looks like both books are available online here:

It's microfiche and I'm not sure about the viewing.
