This review is from: Being Oromo in Kenya (Hardcover)

Mario I. Aguilar is one of the best Antropologists who specialised on African Studies in general and on the Oromo People in particular."Being Oromo in Kenya" is a book on first hand experience. This is a work of a man who devoted his life to make the entire culture, tradition, and life's philosophy of the Oromo People known to the world at large. I can only recomend you to read this book.
