‎Kipling, Rudyard [Cormac McCarthy]‎

‎Being a Man If-.‎

‎Rare print of Rudyard Kipling's poem Being a Man more commonly referred to as "If-". One page typed. Boldly signed by author Cormac McCarthy at the bottom right corner. Cormac McCarthy 1933–2023 was an American novelist whose stark prose and often violent themes earned him recognition as one of the most influential literary voices of the late twentieth and early twenty-first centuries. His best-known works include Blood Meridian 1985 regarded as a masterpiece of the American West and frontier violence and the Border Trilogy—All the Pretty Horses 1992 The Crossing 1994 and Cities of the Plain 1998—which brought him both critical acclaim and commercial success with All the Pretty Horses winning the National Book Award. Later No Country for Old Men 2005 and The Road 2006 achieved bestseller status with the latter earning him the Pulitzer Prize and cementing his reputation as a chronicler of human survival and moral ambiguity. In near fine condition. The piece measures 6 inches by 7.5 inches. Housed in a hand-made cloth folder by the Harcourt Bindery. "If—" first appeared in the "Brother Square Toes" chapter of the book Rewards and Fairies a collection of Kipling's poetry and short-story fiction published in 1910. In his posthumously published autobiography Something of Myself 1937 Kipling said that in writing the poem he was inspired by the character of Leander Starr Jameson leader of the failed Jameson Raid against the Transvaal Republic to overthrow the Boer Government of Paul Kruger. The failure of that mercenary coup d'état aggravated the political tensions between Great Britain and the Boers which led to the Second Boer War 1899–1902.As an evocation of Victorian-era stoicism—the "stiff upper lip" self-discipline which popular culture rendered into a British national virtue and character trait "If—" remains a cultural touchstone. hardcover‎

‎CAPTAINS COURAGEOUS. A Story of the Grand Banks‎

‎1897. With Illustrations by I.W. Taber. London: Macmillan and Co. 1897. 2 pp undated ads. Original blue cloth pictorially decorated in gilt all page edges gilt.<br/> <br/> First English Edition published about a month after the American. This is Kipling's great novel about the cod fishing fleet of Gloucester Massachusetts written while the newlywed Kiplings lived in Vermont. Kipling freely acknowledged that the book owed much to Dr. James Conland of Brattleboro who brought the Kiplings' elder daughter into the world -- for Conland had been a member of the Massachusetts fishing fleet and it was he who took Kipling to explore the wharves and quays of Boston and Gloucester. The American edition in fact is dedicated to Conland; this English edition bears no dedication. This is the only book of Kipling's which is set entirely in America. All the characters are American. Not only that but the heart of the book -- its moral in a single sentence -- is one of Kipling's main beliefs of this period expressed in terms essentially American or perhaps more particularly New England. He put it later in verse: ".If you don't work you will die!" It is a saga of hard physical work in conflict with natural forces. It is a book which could hardly have been written by anyone who did not admire Huckleberry Finn; it is a book whose claim to survival rests mainly on detail and it is all American detail Mason. CAPTAINS COURAGEOUS was the fourth and last volume to be bound in Macmillan's attractive gift binding style used for the JUNGLE BOOKs in 1894-1895 and for SOLDIER TALES in 1896. In 1937 forty years after publication this tale was made into a film starring Freddie Bartholomew Spencer Tracy who won an Oscar Lionel Barrymore and Mickey Rooney. This is a near-fine copy spine less than bright slight rubbing at the extremities light foxing; the original black-coated endpapers are not cracked. Richards A103; Stewart 163. unknown‎
