About this audiobook
There is an extended 'frame' to this tale, in which the narrator is out on manoeuvres with the 'Ould Regiment'. After a lively day, they bivouac companionably for the night. He falls in with the 'Soldiers Three', and settles down by their camp fire. Mulvaney is thoughtful, reflecting on the adventures and misadventures of his life. 'For all we take, we must pay,' he murmurs, 'but the price is cruel high'.
Rudyard Kipling
Rudyard Kipling was born in India in 1865. After intermittently moving between India and England during his early life, he settled in the latter in 1889, published his novel The Light That Failed in 1891 and married Caroline (Carrie) Balestier the following year. They returned to her home in Brattleboro, Vermont, where Kipling wrote both The Jungle Book and its sequel, as well as Captains Courageous. He continued to write prolifically and was the first Englishman to receive the Nobel Prize for Literature in 1907 but his later years were darkened by the death of his son John at the Battle of Loos in 1915. He died in 1936.
