Among the Maasai, A Memoir,

About the book:
In 1999, Juliet Cutler leaves the United States to teach at the first school for Maasai girls in East Africa, making the beginning of a twenty-year journey to empower young Maasai women through education. Working alongside local teachers, Cutler is transformed by the community she finds in Tanzania and by witnessing the life-changing impacts of education on her students - many of whom face staggering poverty, forced marriages, genital cutting, and other forms of gender based violence.
