Chris is on page 80 of 300 of The Comforts of Home: Prostitution in Colonial Nairobi
Between 1900 and 1920, Nandi women constituted the largest population of prostitutes in Nairobi. This was a result of raid by British that confiscated 80 percent of their cattle. The Nandi women got into prostitution to supplant income.

During the same period, nomadic communities formed bulk of prostitutes in Nairobi. This coincided with prolonged drought or animal disease (Rinderpest).

Chris is on page 24 of The Antichrist/Thus Spake Zarathustra
If you've read The Prophet by Khalil Gibran, this feels like repetition but with a deeper story line. You'd love the first story of the nobleman in a city.

Never thought this would be a fast paced read. If you love history​, the facts come in handy.
