Kenya, simultaneously heralded for its political stability and economic success and criticized as a wellspring of elitism and class exploitation, remains a close ally of the West and a symbol of capitalism in Africa. Yet its exquisite natural beauty and wildlife hide a more mundane reality. The country is rural, poor, and without mineral wealth, and less than 20 percent of Kenya's land area is readily available for dense human settlement. In this revised edition, Miller and Yeager address these social issues while tracing political and economic developments from early precolonial times to the contemporary period. The book captures the aggressive, self-confident spirit that characterizes Kenya and provides unique insights into how this nation of contemporary Africa is faring in its continuing quest for prosperity.
