This story tells about the everyday lives of a nomadic family from Somalia. Nomads travel together with their animals-camels, sheep and goats, and sometimes cows-in search of good pasture and water. They share the land with other nomads, and take care of it so that it will provide for their children, their grandchildren, and their great grandchildren. Nomads do not wander about without a plan. They move with the season and to a pattern. In one year they will completer their pattern of migration and begin again.--page 1.

Dahabo was five years old when British Colonial troops stormed her village, massacring most of her family and friends. A refugee and a nomad, Dahabo traveled throughout Somalia, reconnecting the pieces of her family as she tried to build a life. Living through a period of great change and political upheaval, Dahabo's story is framed by a backdrop of British, then Italian occupations, war with Ethiopia, Somalian Independence and the devastation of Cold War power struggles. The rise and fall of her country mirrored the successes, heartbreaks, and ultimate peace she found in her life. This is the story of my grandmother Dahabo, a Somali nomad.

A remarkable and inspiring true story that "stuns with raw beauty" about one woman's resilience, her courageous journey to America, and her family's lost way of life. Winner of the 2022 Gold Nautilus Award, Multicultural & Indigenous Category Born in Somalia, a spare daughter in a large family, Shugri Said Salh was sent at age six to live with her nomadic grandmother in the desert. The last of her family to learn this once-common way of life, Salh found herself chasing warthogs, climbing termite hills, herding goats, and moving constantly in search of water and grazing lands with her nomadic family. For Salh, though the desert was a harsh place threatened by drought, predators, and enemy clans, it also held beauty, innovation, centuries of tradition, and a way for a young Sufi girl to learn courage and independence from a fearless group of relatives. Salh grew to love the freedom of roaming with her animals and the powerful feeling of community found in nomadic rituals and the oral storytelling of her ancestors. As she came of age, though, both she and her beloved Somalia were forced to confront change, violence, and instability. Salh writes with engaging frankness and a fierce feminism of trying to break free of the patriarchal beliefs of her culture, of her forced female genital mutilation, of the loss of her mother, and of her growing need for independence. Taken from the desert by her strict father and then displaced along with millions of others by the Somali Civil War, Salh fled first to a refugee camp on the Kenyan border and ultimately to North America to learn yet another way of life. Readers will fall in love with Salh on the page as she tells her inspiring story about leaving Africa, learning English, finding love, and embracing a new horizon for herself and her family. Honest and tender, The Last Nomad is a riveting coming-of-age story of resilience, survival, and the shifting definitions of home.

There is a tendency to consider all refugees as 'vulnerable victims': an attitude reinforced by the stream of images depicting refugees living in abject conditions. This groundbreaking study of Somalis in a Kenyan refugee camp reveals the inadequacy of such assumptions by describing the rich personal and social histories that refugees bring with them to the camps. The author focuses on the ways in which Somalis are able to adapt their 'nomadic' heritage in order to cope with camp life; a heritage that includes a high degree of mobility and strong social networks that reach beyond the confines of the camp as far as the U.S. and Europe.

Somalis have lived in the Horn of Africa for thousands of years. Today they number about six million people. As well as inhabiting the area known generally since 1960 as the Somali Republic, they also live in adjacent areas in Djibouti, the Ogaden area of Ethiopia and in northern Kenya. This is because traditional clan homelands pre-date modern day national borders. This factor has been a constant cause of conflict between Somalia and its neighbours right up to the present time. From time immemorial Somalis have been a nomadic people, migrating with their livestock, according to the season, in search of water and pasture. Nomads do not travel aimlessly, they follow traditional seasonal patterns of migration within as identifiable given location. They know the times when rain is expected, and know which areas are likely to have grass when other places have dried up. They travel in groups made up of the extended family. These family groupings are based on kinship relations of the adult male members. A father, his adult sons and their families will commonly constitute the nomadic family group, called the reer. It may also include other adult males related to the father, and their dependents. In times of plenty many members of the extended family will stay together; during the dry season and in times of drought the group will split up into smaller units and become more scattered.
