"The Mau Mau Insurrection is interesting for many reasons, not the least of which is the fact that it serves (like the Salem, MA witch trials and later American Communist hunts) as an excellent example of mass hysteria. It is an even more exceptional case though because while it seems that the Mau Mau were originally invented by the European settlers (even the word "Mau Mau" appears to be a European invention) there can be no denying the fact that real Mau Mau appeared on the scene shortly thereafter and quickly became a tangible army and active fighting force."
