...drive through the thickly populated Kikuyu reserve, where shaven-headed Kikuyu women stagger under headloads that would shatter the spines of pack mules, and the closely clustered thatched mud huts look like shaggy beehives. Then you come to the edge of the escarpment, and the Rift Valley lies below you like a giant frying pan. Over to the right, the Aberdare range begins to loom, blue and smoky, and that's where the Mau Mau gangs lurk, and strike from. There are no east-west roads across the Aberdares.
