This book is essentially a fable, beginning in the vague mists of time with the Kikuyu creation myth and progressing through the formation and eventual collapse of its resulting society. Many of its elements resonate in creation myths worldwide. Gikuyu and Mumbi serve in very much the same capacity as do Adam and Eve. The symbolic warrior, manifested as Macharia, becomes an inquiring spirit. What he is going to learn is that he must look on himself as a man of the world, not as someone who is always looking back to his origins in the primeval cave. He turns into a man, which means that he must stop thinking of himself simply as a Kikuyu. In this way, as in many others, his story mirrors our own... Discover the fascinating culture of the...

1903. Thomas Nelson Page, author of short stories, novels, essays, and poetry, is best known for his role as literary spokesman for the glories of the Old South. Gordon Keith begins: Gordon Keith was the son of a gentleman. And this fact, like the cat the honest miller left to his youngest son, was his only patrimony. As in that case also, it stood to the possessor in the place of a good many other things. It helped him over many rough places. He carried it with him as a devoted Romanist wears a sacred scapular next to the heart. See other titles by this author available from Kessinger Publishing.

Mr Grimpil, however, is about to experience personal turmoil of his own.
