My Embu History & Culture Book Collection

Written By Karimi Ndwiga

As a Kenyan in the diaspora, I am always looking for resources to learn about my people. Books have been a great source of knowledge. I have a small but mighty collection of books about Embu history, culture, and tradition. In no particular order:

  • Embu Historical Texts by H.S.K. Mwaniki

  • Oral Literature of the Embu and Mbeere by Ciarunji Chesaina

  • Categories and Substance of Embu Traditional Songs and Dances by H.S.K. Mwaniki

  • The Living History of Embu and Mbeere by H.S.K. Mwaniki
