This book takes you on a journey to the heart of the Kikuyu people of British East Africa, offering a fascinating glimpse into their lives and culture at the turn of the 20th century. The author, who spent several years living among the Kikuyu, paints a vivid picture of their daily life, from their unique dress and agricultural practices to their intricate social customs and ceremonies. Through detailed observations and conversations with the Kikuyu, the author delves into their political organization, their conception of the deity and the soul, and their moral framework. This exploration reveals a society with a rich history and complex social structures, where deeply rooted traditions govern every aspect of life. By drawing parallels between the Kikuyu and early European societies, the author invites us to reflect on the shared human experience and the universal themes that connect us across time and cultures. This book offers a valuable window into a way of life that is rapidly disappearing, reminding us of the importance of preserving and understanding cultural diversity. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format.

Dear Herbert,* There has not seemed to be a moment sins Friday to tell you that the interview went off very successfully.// Scoresby and I were shown in first. The King and Queen were quite alone, of course. They began talking about our travels, so S. asked if he might produce a chart of our wanderings & that was a great success. The King talked about his own travels & you should have seen us all four hunting for Norfolk Island! The Queen found it first, as I had no specs to hand.// After a good long talk the boys were sent for % got through quite well after the first few moments of embarrassment.// They (the boys) amused us by shaking hands with the footman on leaving! Happily there were no spectators and he was very beautiful!// The interview lasted forty minutes altogether & Lord Stamfordham* said afterwards the King had been much interested which I hope was correct.// We had a very pleasant luncheon at St. James's Palace. The archbishop & W. Davidson were there and one or two A.?// Thank you again for your large share in this memorable event! Affectly. Yours, K. Routledge.
