Currently reading Warriors - life and death among the Somalis by Gerald Hanley, recommendations are welcome.

 
I use archive dot org, some of the older books are outdated, so take things with a grain of salt and view it under the lens of the viewer.

Thank you bro. By the way, while I was searching for sources for books and so on, I found a book that talks about the Italian colonial period in Somalia. I want you to look at it.

What is it about?
Here is the synopsis.

This superb portrait of one of the world's most desolate, sun-scorched lands, inhabited by fiercely independent tribesmen, is Rageh Omer's favorite book on his native land. A grueling description of a little-known aspect of WWII, Warriors describes a group of British Army soldiers charged with preventing bloodshed between feuding tribes at a remote outstation in Somalia. Hanley turns this period of his life, a difficult time that drove seven officers to suicide, into a devastating critique of imperialism.
