The Mzungu Boy Paperback ? July 4, 2017 by Meja Mwangi

The Mzungu Boy is a work of fiction that takes place in Kenya, Africa, in the early 1950s.

At that time the country, a British colony, was faced with an uprising that became known as the Mau Mau Rebellion. Much of Kenya, including the best farmland, was in the hands of European settlers. At best, native Kenyans were allowed to work on the land as tenant farmers, under exploitative and demeaning conditions. The rebels wanted the white settlers to leave the country so native Africans could have their independence. As the uprising gained momentum, British rulers declared a state of emergency.

Troops set out to arrest Mau Mau leaders, and rebel groups took to hiding in the forests.
