From Boys to Men Part One & Part Two is basically an account of some of the experiences which were encountered by the author mainly from the time he was aged twelve right up to his adulthood. There is a deliberate effort by the author, to shade a picture of a metarmorphosis or transformation of his life as part and parcel of his journey from childhood to adulthood, hence, the catch title 'From Boys to Men'. Besides talking about his village life as a Nyachuru primary school going lad until that was shaken by the then Rhodesian 'protected village/Kipi curfew life', the author talked at great length about his life as a Howard secondary school boarder. Unlike Part Two whereby the author, quoting a lot of Bible verses is basically attempts to directly inspire, motivate, teach and share what he views as stubborn faith as well as consencration in the 'Born Again' believer' journey to Heaven, in Part One he uses a different approach. The approach in Part One, although it sounds dominantly autobigraphical, the author, once in blue moon though, also utilised his creative and imaginary writing skills for the sake of emphasis or clarity of the picture of both the actual and possible phenomena in his past, be it dialogues, conversations or whatever incidents. Obviously, a detailed or graphic memories some of the conversations and some of the incidents which transpired during those past decades at times may not have been as fresh as the time they took place. The author tried his best to remember all that he could remember to make his account not only a complete story but also an interesting story to read. At the end of both Part One and Two of the book, the author provides an opportunity for the reader to, just as he himself did at the age of ninteeen, consider placing their faith in Jesus Christ and accept Him as their personal Lord and Saviour too.
