My Country First: Michael Kijana Wama...
Michael Wamalwa was born to an aristocratic family in the vear 1944. His enviabe ranks through various schools and colleges was more a reflection of individual brilliance than family resources. But after getting a good education at Chewoyet, Strathmore, Cambridge, and the London School of economics, he enterred the Kenya parliament and stagnated in the back benches for almost twenty years.
It took the return of multi partyism for his skills to become noticeable, and as fate would have it, he found himself as the man of the moment in the prelude to the historic 2002, elections that heralded a new political dispensation.
Fortunately, he jumped the right way, and although he died just a few months after taking office as Kenya's 8th Vice president, his legacy of selflessness lives on.

The Price of Freedom Achieng Oneko: T...
Ramogi Achieng’ Oneko’s public life is a story of resilience and courage, as well as sacrifice and betrayal, in the pursuit of the State that Kenyans have yearned for. Oneko was among the most consequential figures in the struggle for Kenya’s independence in the 1950s and in the early 1960s, collectively known as the Kapenguria Six, after the sham trial they endured in Kapenguria, northwestern Kenya, following their arrest on 20 October 1952. Also arrested alongside Oneko by the British colonial authorities in the Kenya Colony were Jomo Kenyatta, Paul Ngei, Bildad Kaggia, Kung’u Karumba, and Fred Kubai.
This book is a narrative of Oneko’s heroic life and times, largely as told by himself, and also carefully reconstructed from notes he left behind at the time of his death in 2007. It also draws from other historical sources and authorities, including primary source eye-witness accounts, to give a powerful eye–opener to the true story of the elusive quest for a Kenyan nation.
The narrative explores key debates surrounding land, nationalism, governance, and post-independence state formation. Through Oneko’s reflections, you get to gain insight into the aspirations and tensions that accompanied the transition from colonial rule to self-government.
This volume is an invaluable addition to the repository of the Kenyan narrative, for anyone interested in the country’s true story.

Mr. President, Can We Talk? by Alpha ...
In every society, there comes a time when silence becomes more dangerous than speech. There comes a moment when citizens must move from whispers in their homes to conversations in the public square. This book is part of that moment. It is not an attack on any individual. It is a call to conscience. It is an invitation to leadership to listen.
The Natural Environment! My other Thr...
This book examines the natural environment as an integral dimension of human identity, framing it as the 'Other Threatened Self.' The 'Other' is understood not as an alien entity but as that which shapes and complements human identity from beyond the self (a silent partner in existence).
From philosophical, ecological and phenomenological perspectives, the book argues that estrangement from nature is not only an ecological crisis but also a crisis of selfhood. The destruction of ecosystems reflects the fragmentation of human subjectivity; to forget nature is to lose the fullness of being. On the other hand, taking it into account restores an ontological wholeness where humanity and the natural world share their essence.
Modern technological relationships, however, tend to reduce the environment to a calculable resource, abstracted into units of use and exchange. Against this reduction, the book reclaims the environment as the 'Other Threatened Self,' reawakening the ethical imperative of responsibility in which care for the earth is inseparable from care for oneself.
Such a reorientation opens a path to ecological renewal, not through technical fixes, but through grounding human life in an ontology of interdependence and reverence for the more-than-human world. The book, therefore, proposes an integrative vision of sustainability that heals the fractured relationship between humans and their threatened ecological self, calling for a renewed consciousness that recognises care for nature as care for one's own being.
Shadow of God
The Shadow of God is a Kenyan story set in rural Meru County, where poverty forces people into dishonest choices. At the centre is young Thĩĩrĩ, who finds himself forced to make a grown-up decision he never asked for.
When those around him accept cutting corners as part of survival, Thĩĩrĩ refuses. His commitment to doing what is right costs him everything and he is pushed out into the world alone, with nothing but his faith and his honesty to hold onto.
What follows is a journey of hardship, loneliness and unexpected kindness as he tries to build a life from scratch. The Shadow of God is a story about staying true to yourself when everything tempts you to do otherwise and about trusting that choosing the right path will eventually lead you somewhere good.
What Others Say
A mind-boggling overture for a debut author. It's quite quirky and would fit a small niche of books. - S. K .Nganaga.

Recovering the Somali State: The Role...
Somalia is often used as an emblem of a collapsed state. This is somewhat of a paradox given that in previous decades the country was one of the most unified states in Africa and one of the first democracies on the continent. In the last three decades however the country has faced enormous challenges including civil wars and extremism in the name of Islam.
The book - probably one of the first to link Islam, Islamism and Transitional Justice with the Somali State recovery project - offers unique analyses of these themes and argues that recovering the Somali state will largely be contingent upon the skillful reconciliation between tradition and modernity, Islam and state and between the secular and the sacred.
