Getting Lost to Find Home

Über Getting Lost to Find Home

Caroline Miller, teacher, lobbyist, labor leader, politician, artist, and author shares a candid account of her youth. The ink being barely dry on her college diploma from Reed College in Portland, Oregon, she follows her fiancé to England. Two years later, after struggling to adapt to life in a new country, the man she adores breaks her heart. Rudderless, she joins a friend headed to teach in Africa. The 1960s is an era when white colonial empires are struggling to maintain their grip on indigenous populations. By the time she arrives in East Africa, UHURU, the cry for freedom, ignites the land. Her coming-of-age story mirrors the struggle of new nations-a saga of surprise, suffering, and joy, markers along a road that began with heartbreak and lead to the discovery of human connection.
