‎The Graves of the Fallen: Imperial War Graves Commission.‎

‎London: His Majesty's Stationery Office 1919. Exceptionally rare first edition of this pamphlet honoring every British soldier who died in World War I. Oblong octavo original publisher's pictorial wrappers illustrated with black and white drawings of the cemeteries and memorials as they will appear completed throughout. In near fine condition. Illustrated by Mr. Douglas Macpherson. Housed in a custom red portfolio with gilt titles to the front panel and string ties. Rudyard Kipling’s The Graves of the Fallen 1919 written for the Imperial War Graves Commission articulates the moral and aesthetic vision behind the design and commemoration of British and Commonwealth soldiers’ graves after World War I. Serving as the Commission’s literary adviser Kipling helped shape its guiding principles of equality in death—ensuring that all soldiers regardless of rank or class were memorialized with identical headstones and inscriptions. The text blends solemn prose with restrained idealism reflecting both personal grief—Kipling’s son was killed in the war—and a collective commitment to remembrance.

First edition first UK printing with contemporary insurance policy advertisement bookmark loosely inserted. An extensively researched work covering the movements and actions of the Irish Guards from their mobilisation the First Battalion on 4th August 1914 the Second from the 15th July 1915 through to Armistice day. The Irish Guards were one of the first regiments to be mobilised and they remained on the Western Front for the duration of the war. They took part in one of the bloodiest battles of 1914 the battle of Ypres as well as the Battle of the Somme and faced huge casualties throughout the duration of the war. Their motto Quis Separabit which appears on the covers of this work translated from the Latin as "Who shall separate us" and comes from the Order of St Patrick. Kipling had good reason to focus his attention on this particular regiment. Upon the outbreak of the First World War the author s only son John was keen to enlist and after failing a series of medical examinations due to poor eyesight it was his father who eventually succeeded in getting him a place being lifelong friends with Lord Roberts former commander-in-chief of the British Army and colonel of the Irish Guards. John joined the Irish Guards and at the battle of Loos was sent into fight two days into the battle in a reinforcement contingent. Missing in action he was presumed dead in service to his country and his body was not formerly identified until 1992. Kipling was devastated by his loss and consumed with guilt at his part in arranging his son s placement. He later wrote in Epitaphs of the War "If any question why we died / Tell them because our fathers lied." Recollection fades from men s minds as common as life closes over them Kipling writes here in his introduction. It is for the sake of these initiated that the compiler has loaded his records with detail and seeming triviality since in a life where Death ruled every hour nothing was trivial. A fascinating historical record scarce in the jackets and often regarded as one of the finest examples of regimental history. Collectible More images available on request.
