"In this fascinating family memoir, Jane Walker reveals the remarkable life and achievements of her father, Russell Wollen, a forgotten pioneer whose impact on the Kenyan coffee industry influenced the development of a nation.
From a grass hut to global negotiating tables, interwoven with the family's narrative of love, drama and sacrifice, this absorbing tale is a poignant window into Kenya's colonial past. Wollen's resilience, determination and vision was instrumental in setting up Kenya Coffee's reputation for excellence on the world stage. Set against a background of political turmoil, personal trials, and the struggle for independence, ""Karangaita Kenya Coffee"" unwraps the heart and soul of a country forging towards freedom."
