Rating:

Amateur effort - not recommended
Much better books available such as "Kilimanjaro: A Guide to Climbing Africa's Highest Mountain, Includes City Guides to Arusha, Moshi, Marangu, Nairobi and Dar Es Salaam" by Henry Stedman. Wouldn't recommend it except to fill out your background reading of a fairly obsessive couple preparing to and then climbing.

Climbing Mount Kilimanjaro
Lots of information, practical tips and experiences. The book provides an exceptional insight into climbing the mountain. Written in an easy to read style. Invaluable to anyone like me who is intending to climb the mountain.

Not worth your time
Poorly written with very limited content, this book is of little interest and very limited use to anyone actually planning to climb Kilimanjaro. I've often thought about writing a book about a trip as a way to deduct the expense from my taxes, but I've refrained for fear that the result would end up like this book. It's chief value is as personal account of the authors' climb, but you can find many similar accounts for free on personal websites everywhere.
