In the unclipped dustwrappers fine except for a touch of fading to the spine of Vol. II both volumes priced £24.95 to their front flaps. An attractive set. Kipling's ambitious regimental history of the Irish Guards originally published in 1923 is an unusually personal work. In 1914 the author's son John then aged seventeen volunteered for military service and was rejected he was under age and suffered from poor eyesight. The following year through Kipling's friendship with Lord Roberts Colonel-in-Chief of the Irish Guards John gained a commission with the regiment travelling to France where he was killed in the Battle of Loos he was eighteen. Kipling was haunted by the loss for the rest of his life. When approached about writing a history of the Irish Guards "not on business terms but as a monument of his son's service" he spent over five years researching and writing the work. A substantial and vivid piece of historical scholarship it is a neglected Kipling masterpiece. This generously illlustrated edition includes a foreword by George Webb editor of The Kipling Journal and a biographical sketch of John Kipling reproduced from the Irish Guards Journal.
