‎<p>FIRST EDITION tall narrow 4to half red morocco over marbled boards original light brown printed wrappers that double as an Indian civil service envelope preserved marbled endpapers bookplates of William Garth and William Marchbank Lahore the Civil and Military Press 1886.</p><p>The First Edition of Kipling's first published work. Previous work was either printed privately offprints or collaborative books. Kipling was sub-editor of the Civil and Military Gazette an Anglophone newspaper reporting from Lahore on the life of the Civil Service and the Indian Army in Punjab. Thanks to his occupation and his family's social standing he had many opportunities to explore the full range of life in India. He remained keenly observant of the thronging spectacle of native India which had engaged his interest and affection from earliest childhood. He was quickly filling the journals he worked for with prose sketches and light verse. Kipling began inserting his own poems under the heading of Departmental Ditties into the newspaper and then produced this edition made up to look like a bundle of civil service memoranda. </p><p>Richards A7; Stewart 8; Livingston 22</p><br /> William Marchbank‎

Original paper-covered boards. Period ink name inscription to the half-title page. Second edition - same year as the first. This edition had five new poems as well as alterations to three poems not published in England until 1897. Very scarce - only 750 copies of this book were printed. A notoriously fragile book - this copy is largely complete. It is missing nearly all of the spine strip. Original thin paper-covered boards. There are a couple of notable creases to these boards - a shortish one to the front board but a lengthy crease to the rear boardwhich extends the whole length of the board - this may well have been a little repaired in the past. The boards are somewhat soiled and stained. There is a contemporary ink short gift inscription to the half-title page. Otherwise the pages remain very clean and tight. A good completely original though missing the spine strip copy of a very scarce book. Thacker, Spink and Co hardcover‎

‎Destroyers at Jutland 4 vols complete set‎

‎Doubleday Page & Company Garden City first editions 1916. Editions of 70 copies. 4 vols printed wrappers. A complete set of the true first editions of these four articles these American copyright issues preceding the newspaper publication in The Daily Telegraph and The New York Times in October 1916. Here the articles are simply titled Destroyers at Jutland I -IV; in the newspapers they were given titles as follows: ‘Stories of the Battle"; ‘The Night Hunt’ ‘The Meaning of 'Joss’' and ‘The Minds of Men’. Kipling's accounts are chiefly concerned with "destroyer actions on the 31st May and 1st June: mostly but not entirely of the confused night-fighting after the engagements between the two main battle-fleets" Alastair Wilson on the Kipling Society website. He opens: "THERE was much destroyer-work in the Battle of Jutland. The actual battle field may not have been more than twenty thousand square miles but the incidental patrols from first to last must have covered many times that area. Doubtless the next generation will comb out every detail of it. All we need remember is there were many squadrons of battleships and cruisers engaged over the face of the North Sea and that they were accompanied in their dread comings and goings by multitudes of destroyers who attacked the enemy both by day and by night from the afternoon of May 31 to the morning of June 1 1916." Three of the pamphlets contain one of Kipling's poems the first being the very poignant "‘Have you news of my boy Jack". Near Fine set in a chemise and somewhat worn leather-backed slipcase. Doubleday, Page & Company, Garden City, first editions, 1916 hardcover‎
