Description
This collection brings together seventeen of Kipling's early stories, written between 1885 and 1888, when Kipling was working as a journalist in India. Wry comedies of British officialdom alternate with glimpses into the harsh lives of the common soldiers and the Indian poor, revealing Kipling's legendary powers of observation, and in "Baa Baa, Black Sheep" his own miserable childhood. From Mrs. Hauksbee's Simla drawing-room to Mulvaney's cot in barracks, to the wild hills of Kafiristan, Kipling re-creates the India he knew in stories by turn ironic and sentimental, compassionate and bitter, displaying the brilliance that has captivated readers for over a century.
