Green City in the Sun

Another gripping novel by Barbara Wood.
With World War I behind them, the Treverton family set out from England to make their fortune in the unspoiled paradise of Kenya. But nothing could have prepared them for what they found in their new world: the harsh, beautiful land and the Kikuyu people who live there. We follow them through several generations; tragedy and triumph, the Mau Mau movement and forbidden love. Green City in the Sun is a novel as magnificent as the continent of Africa itself.
