Dear All,
Harper Collins have finally come up with an e-book of "It's Our Turn to Eat", which has been widely circulating in pirate form on websites and mailing lists in the last few weeks because of a boycott by Kenyan bookshop owners nervous of being sued. So Kenyans can now buy and download a legitimate PDF file of the book, by clicking on (thanks steve for the link correction):
We've tried to keep the price as low as possible - you'll see that it is a lot cheaper than the hard copy. We're also hoping to make this something Kenyans who don't own credit cards can buy on M-Pesa, but at the moment that's proving a logistical nightmare.Please spread the word. There’s no reason, now, to circulate or download bootleg copies of the book.

Consider this my Easter present. Happy Easter guys!
