... a wide-ranging and masterly discussion of the colonial years in central Kenya. Both authors display an admirable erudition, Berman in concentrating on white-settler and colonial concerns and administration, Lonsdale on African responses. Lonsdale's great chapter in the second volume entitled 'The Moral Economy of Mau Mau' is an approach to understanding them that achieves a grand originality. -
