Trapped in History tells how the British colonised Kenya and how
African nationalism arose under Jomo Kenyatta. It describes the
terrifying first attacks by the guerrilla freedom fighters known as
Mau Mau. Though defeated, the Mau Mau hastened the end of British
rule in Kenya. Trapped in History explores the effect the uprising
on the author, who grew up as a child in the Kenya colony. The book
is both a history, as well as a memoir, of the end of Empire.
