In 1/1878 Kipling was admitted to the United Services College at Westward Ho! Devon a school founded a few years earlier to prepare boys for the armed forces. The school proved rough going for him at first but led to firm friendships & provided the setting for his schoolboy stories Stalky & Co. published years later. During his time there he met & fell in love with Florence Garrard the model for Maisie in his 1st novel The Light That Failed initially published in 1890 in Lippincott's Monthly Magazine. Dick Heldar is a war correspondent & an artist known for the drawings he sends home to the London papers from wars in exotic places like Sudan. When he returns to London he attempts to make a career for himself as a serious artist & encounters his childhood sweetheart Maisie. They fall in love. Then he learns that a minor problem with his eyes is actually the onset of blindness incurable--the result of a head wound he took during the war. As his vision fails the light of everything around him--his life his hopes his dreams--fail with it. There are terrible choices to be made between the love of the woman he treasures & the love of the men who stood by him at the front. From Goodreads.

The Light that Failed.
New York: United States Book Company successors to John W. Lovell Company 1890 1891. Rare in this near-fine condition First US edition first printing of the first trade book edition of Kipling's novel. This semi-autobiographical work deals with the theme of unrequited love; the elusive character Maisie is based on the Slade artist Flo Garrard who Kipling was unsuccessful in courting following the breakdown of his engagement to Caroline Taylor in 1890. The true first edition comprises a copyright edition which was filed for copyright in the US on 7 November 1890 and the serial rights were acquired by Lippincott's Monthly Magazine for its January 1891 issue appearing in Australia the UK and the US. On 12 November 1890 a copy of the present book the first US edition was deposited in the Library of Congress. It was not sold however until Lippincott's had been published. This edition prints the 12-chapter version with the "happy ending". Although Kipling originally wrote the novel with a "sad ending" the "happy ending" was the first to appear in print. The 14-chapter "sad ending" version in which the hero dies in battle was deposited in the Library of Congress on 26 November. Octavo. Original orange wrappers lettered and illustrated in black 22 vols in "Lovell's Westminster Series" listed on inside of rear wrapper. Housed in a custom red cloth chemise and red morocco-backed slipcase. Head and foot of spine together with top edge of front wrapper slightly chipped minor creasing to spine gatherings unopened; a near-fine and bright copy. Livingston 62; Stewart 84; Grolier 122; Richards A50. hardcover
