I am Barmoiben Kipkemoi Araap Korir, a Kenyan independent scholar, writer, and cultural historian. I am a retired military officer who now devotes my time to documenting the people, events, and cultures that shaped East Africa. My work focuses on Kalenjin heritage, Kenyan political history, military institutions, and the stories of communities like the Boers in Kenya's Rift Valley.
My published works include:
KARNET: The Life and Times of Nicholas Kipyator Kiprono Araap Biwott
Afrikaners in Kenya 1900-2025: Kaburu – The Boer Legacy in Kenya
The 1982 Kenya Coup Attempt: A Complete History
Daniel Komen: The Untouchable Pace
Boinett: The Architect of Vigilance
Kalenjin Phases of the Moon
Biography of Ezekiel Birech
I live in Kenya, where I continue to research and write.
