The Flame Trees of Thika : Memories of an African Childhood
By Elspeth Huxley
This memoir recounts Huxley's childhood spent on a coffee plantation in Kenya during the early 20th century, offering a
vivid portrait of colonial life and the challenges faced by pioneering settlers among the Kikuyu people.
The book details the struggles of building a home, adapting to the harsh climate and wildlife, and learning about the local customs of
the Kikuyu and Maasai people.
The Flame Trees of Thika was later adapted into a Mobil Masterpiece Theatre presentation.
