Best Kenya guidebook
If you're getting a guide, I recommend this, it has much more useful information than the other two guides I have, plus useful maps and wildlife photos. Fab!

Not bad
The book is good for background info and general orientation, but a bit dated on hotels, restaurants and bars.

For Nairobi, the info on the central district is pretty good but it doesn't really do the suburbs any justice at all.
