London England: Book Club Associates 1972. There is magic in the telling of these stories magic too in these animals whether of the jungle or of the far north who understand things better than do we men. Kipling must have spent a long time studying their habits. He would have heard the stories told by the shikaris; he would have watched the elephants and npted the behavious of the mahouts as he lay on his back on the trail of the gun down in the lines. In a friend's bungalow perhaps he might have heard about the cobra in the bathroom and been shown the place where it was killed. Perhaps Rikki-Tikki-Tavi the mongoose came and sat on his shoulder and shared his breakfast.Illustrations. Previous owners name inside cover. Some wear to edges of D/J. Seventh Impression.
