Description
"This work explores Britain's attempt to take land from the Bantu-Luyia peoples of Western Kenya for gold mining following the discovery of gold in the North Kavirondo (NK) reserve in 1931. Fundamentally, this work captures the largely undocumented histories of "the common people" who lived through Kenya's failed eldorado."--Jacket.
