Within a broad analysis of colonial oppurtunities for physical, social and educational mobility, Kanogo shows how African and British male authorities tried, with uncertain opinions and from different perspectives, to control female initiatives, and how, to very varying degrees, women managed to achieve increasing measures of control over their own lives.

At the beginning of the century Kenya was regarded as little more than a corridor to Uganda: since that time, however, it has made a spectacular success of its social and economic development. Indeed, since gaining its independence in 1963, this ethnically divided nation has remained an 'island' of relative political stability amidst its East African neighbours. This fully-revised volume contains substantial literature on the indigenous population, as well as material about the residents and citizens of European and Asian origins.
