In 1953, when Dorothy Stephens and her husband lived in married
student housing at the University of Michigan, she envisioned a
safe, conventional life ahead. She never imagined living in Kenya
toward the end of the Mau Mau uprising, plunged into an exotic new
world, facing safari ants, wild bees, and a vicious monkey, and
discovering a core of strength deep in her security-loving
soul.
See Kenya through her eyes in its last tumultuous days as a
British colony and witness the transformative effect on her life.
Meet the emerging young leaders of the independence movement and
the fascinating women who became her friends. Travel to Murchison
Falls in Uganda and to Ngorongoro Crater in Tanganyika. Accompany
her, with her house servant and three young children, on a
three-hundred-mile drive to the Kenya coast through desolate bush
inhabited by big game, a trip that had a profound and lasting
impact.
