Summary

Discover the remarkable history of the Mau Mau Rebellion....

The Mau Mau Rebellion took place in Kenya, beginning in 1952. A group of native Kenyan peoples, mostly from the Kikuyu tribe, rose up against their British colonizers, who had held the region since 1895.

With a complicated story, it can be difficult to place the Mau Mau Uprising within the larger history of Kenyan nationalism and nationhood. Regardless of nuance, though, its importance in the history of Kenya, Africa, and British colonialism cannot be understated. This is the complete history of the Mau Mau Rebellion.

Discover a plethora of topics, such as:

  • Background and Causes
  • The Desire for Freedom
  • The British Respond: Operation Anvil
  • Brutality and War Crimes
  • The End of the Rebellion
  • Legacy
  • And much more!

A Balanced account

The account seems to aim at neutrality in story-telling often finding "kinder" ways to gloss over the brutal, inhumanity of the British colonizers.
All in all, fairly well researched.
Would have been improved by more weighed in from the memoirs of the Kenyan freedom fighters who might not have had as intricate a system, as the British to convey their account of the events.
