DESCRIPTION:
Calypsoreid said Maybe not quite up to date, but good place to start. I found this guide easy to read and well organized. I have several other resources to get through, but this was a helpful overview, with lots of very detailed info about dealing with the Kenyan people in many circumstances. I'm hopeful I'll remember these relevant tips!. KMR said Great book!. Great book on Kenya. I just took a two week vacation to Kenya and I found this book to be very helpful in understanding the cultures.. Larry Hartke said Kenya culture smart is great. I have a fair amount of experience working and traveling in Kenya, and I think the author has hit all the main issues a visitor should be aware of. It's not hard to get along in Kenya as long as one doesn't try to push western standards onto everything that occurs. This book will speed up the adjustment for anyone wanting to spend some time in one of the most beautiful and challenging countries on earth.
