About this ebook
In this 1912 edition (originally published in 1891), the author has collected all the lyrics and verses used in his books, excepting the Jungle Books and Just So Stories. Included are memorable verses such as “Puck’s Song” from Puck, as well as songs from Actions and Reactions, Naulakha, Rewards and Fairies, and other works.
Rudyard Kipling
Rudyard Kipling (1865-1936) was an English author and poet who began writing in India and shortly found his work celebrated in England. An extravagantly popular, but critically polarizing, figure even in his own lifetime, the author wrote several books for adults and children that have become classics, Kim, The Jungle Book, Just So Stories, Captains Courageous and others. Although taken to task by some critics for his frequently imperialistic stance, the author’s best work rises above his era’s politics. Kipling refused offers of both knighthood and the position of Poet Laureate, but was the first English author to receive the Nobel prize.
