Reviews

“A historical investigation of the highest caliber.” -- African Studies Review “In telling the story of (Ouko’s) death, Cohen and Odhiambo draw upon a rich array of official reports and journalistic investigations into the crime. With careful research and insightful presentation, Cohen and Odhiambo do not explicitly solve this ‘who-dunnit’, but they do tease out a multiplicity of themes about Kenya’s recent political past.” -- Journal of African History
