BABA: THE PEOPLE’S PRESIDENT by...
Raila Odinga is the son of Kenya’s first vice president and opposition party giant Jaramogi Oginga Odinga, but that is increasingly becoming the least of the attributes that define him. Raila’s image in Kenya and internationally has ballooned over the decades and his unrivaled verve for political sanity has drawn him admiration and hate in equal measure. His unwavering identification with the masses and victims of political oppression and other neocolonial ills has conferred upon him unmatched loyalty and eternal relevance with each political cycle, cementing his
perception as a true conundrum, both at home and abroad.
Mr. Odinga’s dedication to the ideals of justice, fairness, equal representation, electoral integrity as well as accountable governance has earned him an immortal place in the hearts of his followers. Even his enemies confess to making political mileage by attempting to antagonize him. Never has it been so immaterial whether a president occupies the State House or remains un-sworn. Raila’s presence in Africa’s politics has provided substantial paternity, warmth, and legitimacy to a field otherwise orphaned and ravaged by political greed, intolerance, and insincerity, hence the title ‘Baba’ (translated ‘father’), and invariably, ‘The People’s President’.
This book is an attempt to extract an outline of the almost non-duplicable qualities of a formidable captain of thousands from a montage of wannabe leaders and irredeemable greenhorns of our times. The author invites the reader to take a peek into the soul of a modern-day model leader—perhaps even a political saint.
The Postcard Hardcover by Anne Berest...
January, 2003. Together with the usual holiday cards, an anonymous postcard is delivered to the Berest family home. On the front, a photo of the Opéra Garnier in Paris. On the back, the names of Anne Berest’s maternal great-grandparents, Ephraïm and Emma, and their children, Noémie and Jacques—all killed at Auschwitz.
Fifteen years after the postcard is delivered, Anne, the heroine of this novel, is moved to discover who sent it and why.
Aided by her chain-smoking mother, family members, friends, associates, a private detective, a graphologist, and many others, she embarks on a journey to discover the fate of the Rabinovitch family: their flight from Russia following the revolution, their journey to Latvia, Palestine, and Paris. What emerges is a moving saga that shatters long-held certainties about Anne’s family, her country, and herself.
Hell’s Half-Acre: The Untold St...
In 1873 the people of Labette County, Kansas made a grisly discovery. Buried by a trailside cabin beneath an orchard of young apple trees were the remains of countless bodies. Below the cabin itself was a cellar stained with blood. The Benders, the family of four who once resided on the property were nowhere to be found. The discovery sent the local community and national newspapers into a frenzy that continued for decades, sparking an epic manhunt for the Benders.
The idea that a family of seemingly respectable homesteaders—one among the thousands relocating farther west in search of land and opportunity after the Civil War—were capable of operating "a human slaughter pen" appalled and fascinated the nation. But who the Benders really were, why they committed such a vicious killing spree and whether justice ever caught up to them is a mystery that remains unsolved to this day. Set against the backdrop of postbellum America, Hell’s Half-Acre explores the environment capable of allowing such horrors to take place. Drawing on extensive original archival material, Susan Jonusas introduces us to a fascinating cast of characters, many of whom have been previously missing from the story. Among them are the families of the victims, the hapless detectives who lost the trail, and the fugitives that helped the murderers escape.
Hell’s Half-Acre is a journey into the turbulent heart of nineteenth century America, a place where modernity stalks across the landscape, violently displacing existing populations and building new ones. It is a world where folklore can quickly become fact and an entire family of criminals can slip through a community’s fingers, only to reappear in the most unexpected of places.

GOD WHERE ARE YOU by JOEL GITAU
God Where are you? Is a Pocket book extracted from by book "You will Overcome" Its deep prayer of how one time I was in the valley of dry bones and how God answered my prayers....see some excerpt from the book.....
God please, why, why do I feel that I am screaming myself off, but your ears are completely silent to my cries and my humble pleas? Why is your silence so deafening? Gracious Father, are you still there? Why am I searching all over the place, everywhere, but cannot see your face?
God, why do I feel as if you are so far away, yes, far up there in the sky, far up the heaven, yet you are so close to me?
You are so near to me but why? Why do I feel like you are far off? I ask, in all these troubles, where are you God? God, are you still there for me? Or you are busy dealing with other bigger, greater, and more urgent issues in the universe, forgetting the small and insignificant me?”
Why do I ask all these? Why is my heart troubled? Behold, I cannot see! My eyes cannot see anything! Why do I see only pitch darkness in front of me? Yes, it is totally dark; pitch darkness has filled my life! My life is like the earth in the time of creation -it’s empty, it’s now formless and void! God it is during the day, but why has the sun in my life set at noon? Why is there a total dark eclipse in my life!"
May God answer you in your darkest hour of need.....Amen.

Camp In Between by Beatty Sheila Opanga
Camp in Between is a collection of six exhilarating stories, with various plots, set in various towns in Kenya, woven together by the author’s inventive use of Kenya’s many languages, her humorous wit, and fearless bluntness, majorly to ask one question, what makes a good parent?
Love within and without the bounds of morality addressed, and so is history and a little bit of Kenya’s constantly unstable style of government and where that might lead us.

Freezing Order: A True Story of Russi...
When Bill Browder’s young Russian lawyer, Sergei Magnitsky, was beaten to death in a Moscow jail, Browder made it his life’s mission to go after his killers and make sure they faced justice. The first step of that mission was to uncover who was behind the $230 million tax refund scheme that Magnitsky was killed over.
As Browder and his team tracked the money as it flowed out of Russia through the Baltics and Cyprus and on to Western Europe and the Americas, they were shocked to discovered that Vladimir Putin himself was a beneficiary of the crime.
As law enforcement agencies began freezing the money, Putin retaliated. He and his cronies set up honey traps, hired process servers to chase Browder through cities, murdered more of his Russian allies, and enlisted some of the top lawyers and politicians in America to bring him down. Putin will stop at nothing to protect his money. As Freezing Order reveals, it was Browder’s campaign to expose Putin’s corruption that prompted Russia’s intervention in the 2016 US presidential election.

The Persuaders: At the Front Lines of...
he lifeblood of any free society is persuasion: changing other people's minds to enable real change. But America is suffering a crisis of faith in persuasion that is putting its democracy and the planet itself at risk. People increasingly write each other off instead of seeking to win each other over. Debates are framed in moralistic terms, with enemies battling the righteous. Movements for justice build barriers to entry, instead of on-ramps. Political parties focus on mobilizing the faithful rather than wooing the sceptical. And leaders who seek to forge coalition are labelled sell-outs.
In The Persuaders best-selling author Anand Giridharadas takes us inside these movements and battles, seeking out the dissenters who continue to champion persuasion in an age of polarization. We meet a co-founder of Black Lives Matter; a leader of the feminist resistance to Trumpism; white parents at a seminar on raising adopted children of colour; Bernie Sanders and Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez; a team of door knockers with an uncanny formula for changing minds on immigration; and an ex-cult member turned QAnon deprogrammer.
As they grapple with how to "call out" threats and injustices while "calling in" those who don't agree with them but just might one day, they point a way to healing, and changing, a broken society.

Rumble in the Jungle: Leadership from...
Never doubt that a small group of thoughtful, concerned citizens can change Africa. Indeed it is the only thing that would. Observing the impact that the right people in leadership positions, people who wholly subscribe to servant leadership rather than self-serving leadership has been a great source of inspiration. I experienced first-hand how a few good people have come together and brought positive transformation to businesses, creating excellent shareholder value, money for the community, and income for the employees and government.
I am convinced that finding the right leaders in communities, societies, companies, and countries is the fundamental difference between prosperity and poverty. It s the difference between greatness and mediocrity, and the difference between successful and failed states. By making different choices in leadership and putting the right people in the right places, we can lead this continent to achieve its full and glorious potential for the next generation not the next election! This is now a leadership call to action! About the Author: Norman Moyo is the Chief Executive Officer of Helios Tanzania.
