Kenya from Within

First published in 1968. This book deals with the political history, from the earliest times down to February 1927, of the tropical African Dependency which is now called the Colony and Protectorate of Kenya. The record is, of course, condensed, but an effort has been made to give, with no more detail than is necessary, an account of those political developments of which British people ought to be aware. The writer, during his twenty-three years in the service of the British Government, kept a diary, written day by day except for a few gaps denoting illness or misadventure. Also he systematically retained newspaper files or cuttings, and personal letters.
