"His achievement is to render accessible both the complex political history of Kenya and the personal story of one of the most influential and controversial actors on the contemporary Kenyan political scene. "Raila Odinga: An Enigma in Kenyan Politics" is an excellent introduction for the uninitiated to the complex landscape of Kenyan politics." - Dr. Jeremy Matam Farrall, University of Tasmania, Australia "The quest for democracy in Kenya is illuminated by this empathetic account of the travails of an intrepid politician." Richard L. Sklar, Emeritus Professor, University of California Los Angelos "Raila Odinga is a poster politician in Kenya, and, indeed, in any African country. Given the crisis of political leadership in Africa and the burning quest for alternative political leadership on the continent, Raila Odinga's biography provides an interesting case study that in part provides for for serious thought on both issues." Dr. Willy Mutunga, former Executive Director, Kenya Human Rights Commission. "I found this book very absorbing, and a sympathetic portrayal of an African post-independence leader from an African perspective. As such, I think it is of great interest."
