Description:
This book explores the journey that Kenya has travelled as a nation since its independence on December 12, 1963. It seeks to advance understanding of the country's major milestones in the postcolonial period, the challenges and the lessons that can be learned from this experience, and the future prospects.
Review Quotes: "These two volumes in the "African Histories and Modernities" series, designed to provide a voice for African scholarship, do just that. ... This important book makes it clear that the future is still up for grabs, but that the current generation of scholars owns the past. Summing Up: Highly recommended. Upper-division undergraduates and above." (W. Arens, Choice, Vol. 54 (3), November, 2016)
