A contemporary New York Times review of this 1896 collection of poetry praised Kipling’s “immense rhythmic power. . . .  His preliminaries are always brief, but in the attack he carries all before him.”  The book includes the poems, “The First Chantey,” “To the True Romance,” and “Sestina of the Tramp-Royal,” as well as a few of Kipling’s famous “Barrack-Room Ballads.”

About the Author

Rudyard Kipling (1865–1936) was born in Bombay (now Mumbai), India. The Jungle Book, which he published in 1894, became a children’s classic all over the world. Tales of every kind continued to flow from Kipling’s pen, including Kim (1901) and Just So Stories (1902). Kipling was the first English writer to be awarded the Nobel Prize in Literature, and in 1926 he received the Gold Medal of the Royal Society of Literature.
