Publisher's Synopsis
AFRICA ON FIRE is a story about the African struggle to free Kenya from colonial rule in the 1950s.
THE MAU-MAU: If you were a white farmer, they were terrorists. If you were African, you probably considered them to be Africa's first freedom fighters.
After the war with Germany ended, European farmers migrated to Africa in their hundreds, now they are being targeted by the Mau-Mau, and the struggle to survive is real.
It was a bloody conflict; the start of a rebellion across Africa to free themselves from colonialism. While the biggest loss of life was amongst the African tribes, the white people had to decide if they had made the right choice to move themselves and their families to this beautiful but dangerous country.
