What is East African Odyssey about?
To traditional British school systems in Africa, add 150 young American teachers, most of them single, and the result is change and adventure. British rule had brought English language, laws, government, education, and customs to East Africa, but three countries-Kenya, Tanzania and Uganda-in the 1960s were on the brink of independence and making their own future. This is the story of one young teacher's travels and adventures from the Congo border to the Indian Ocean, from Victoria Falls to the remote Northern Frontier of Kenya. Teaching in Kenya, she interacted with and came to respect her African students and British colleagues. This is a love affair with East Africa and its people-African, Asian, and European. It is exciting, inspiring, sad, and, most of all, unforgettable.
