A man of enormous vitality, Kenyatta, more than any other figure, came to represent the new Africa on the world stage. never losing touch with his origins -- he lived on a farm outside his capital, Nairobi, and regularly worked the land -- he became a familiar figure at international conferences and assemblies. Wearing alternately impeccably tailored suits and resplendent tribal robes, he symbolized both the revolutionary charisma that had built modern Africa and the political pragmatism by which he hoped to forge its future.
