'Been There, Done That: My Eventful Continental Lifetime Journey': is a potent discussion of family values and determination. 'Been There, Done That: My Eventful Continental Lifetime Journey' is the creation of author Rachi Ngaine, MSPA, CPA, CGMA, a former native of Kenya who survived the Mau Mau uprising in the early 1950s. Now a citizen of the United States, Ngaine served in the federal government’s civil service held before retiring at age 75 in January 2018.'In this lifetime story titled Been There, Done That, Rachi Ngaine recounts and narrates personal experience of survival, coping with challenges of growing up in a traditional learning environment from early childhood in his native Kenyan village. It amplifies the appetite and personal struggles for education/ knowledge through public schools, college/university, choosing a career path, and taking grueling handwritten academic/professional exams toward jobs that led to self-actualization/self-esteem and a formal retirement at age seventy-five. The book is an affirmation of a typical family’s basic value system, endurance, and human dignity.'
