1: My Dream is : To SUMMIT the " Roof of Africa"
The book gave me some excellent hints, and it will be easy to pack, so I can refer to it....as I go.
The authors gave so many good ideas , litterally every step of the way.....Else Von Schopp

2: Climbing Kilimanjaro
This books offers a good first hand account on preparing for a climb on Kilimanjaro. It puts on a personal touch that other books usually do not have. Although short, it is worth reading.

3: Amateur effort - not recommended
Wouldn't recommend it except to fill out your background reading of a fairly obsessive couple preparing to and then climbing. 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.

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

5: Not worth your time
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. Poorly written with very limited content, this book is of little interest and very limited use to anyone actually planning to climb Kilimanjaro. 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.
