Kilimanjaro: The Trekking Guide to Africa's Highest Mountain - 2nd Edition; Now includes Mount Meru
I encourage anyone wishing to climb Kili to read it. This is a great book.
I climbed Kili and prior to the climb I learned all about the route I was taking (Shira Plateau). The maps are great.
I also went for the Lava Tower climb and the Reusch Crater, and as the book says: "If you reach the Ash Pit, you can truly say that you have conquered this mountain. ".

This is the Kili book to buy.
In the months preceding the trip, I pored over numerous books on the mountain, including this book by Henry Stedman. I climbed Kili in January 2006. This book was head and shoulders above the rest. Stedman's excellent descriptions of the day-to-day trekking are complemented by what I feel is genuine respect for the mountain and the people who live near it. After reading this book, you'll feel that you actually know what to expect; you'll stop worrying about whether you'll make it to the top and start looking forward to all the amazing details of this truly wonderful part of the world.

Excellent
If you are planning to climb Kili, do not hesitate and get this book. My first time in Africa and trekking up Kili!! And everything I needed to know was in this great book.
