First published in 1888 when Kipling was 23 and working in India for The Civil and Military Gazette Lahore these two volumes contain stories written for periodicals. They were published in the "India Railway Library" series No. 2 and No. 6. respectively by A.H. Wheeler at Allahabad and went into several editions. Kipling left India for London the following year. At the bottom of the first title is stamped "A.J. Combridge & Co. Bombay". THE STORY OF THE GADSBYS conforms to the first issue of the front wrappers in two of the three relevant issue points the mountains appear to be retouched as per the second issue; however the heart shape in lower left corner not touching the border and absence of the "Mayo Art School Lahore" slug beneath the imprint are both points which conform to the first issue indicating a possible unrecorded intermediate issue see Richards p. 90. WEE WILLIE WINKIE conforms to Stewart's description of the third Indian Edition made up of three thousand sheets printed for the first English edition.

1937Best.-Nr. BIBLIO-52449Macmillan and Co. Ltd London Sussex Edition 1937-39. Limited edition of 525 sets of which 500 signed by the author were for sale. However many of these were destroyed when the publisher's warehouse was bombed in 1941. 35 vols royal 8vo full russet Niger morocco handmade paper top edges rough-gilded other edges untrimmed. several thousand pages. The Sussex edition is the definitive edition of Kipling's works splendidly produced and much sought after by collectors. Some contemporary Macmillan advertising material described it thus: "The Sussex Edition had been planned some years before the author's death and was designed to rank as the definitive edition of all his works in prose and verse in the most complete and handsome form. Kipling had undertaken a detailed revision of the text for this purpose and had autographed and numbered the first volume of each set. He left behind him careful instructions regarding the unpublished or uncollected writings which are so conspicuous and interesting a feature of the Sussex Edition. This material includes over sixty stories articles and speeches besides such groups of papers as The War in the Mountains Eyes of Asia and Brazilian Sketches none of them previously published in book form if at all in this country and the whole of his early or uncollected verse." From a contemporary review in the TLS: "The publishers are justified in the use of the epithet "superb" to describe this edition. The fine hand-made paper and Bembo type are equally satisfactory : but perhaps the binding is still more notable. It is . Niger leather lettered and simply ornamented in gold. The volumes though ten inches by six and three quarter inches in size are comparatively slim and so easy to hold; and they have an air of durability and of being meant for reading as well as for keeping which is not always the case with éditions de luxe. Set No.215. Armorial bookplate on the front pastedown endpaper of each volume: 'Ex Libris des Comtes Arrivabene Valenti-Gonzaga'. Spines rubbed and several volumes with some corner or edge-wear or small scrapes to the leather three volumes 5 6 7 with blotches to the spine sometimes extending slightly to the boards; otherwise a good set with good uniformity of colour not always the case with this edition. Internally excellent - clean fresh copies with most volumes unopened or largely so. Macmillan and Co. Ltd, London, Sussex Edition, 1937-39 hardcover

A complete set of the three pamphlets about the submarine service produced to secure American copyright and being the true first editions preceding the newspaper publication of the articles in The Times London and other English newspapers in June 1916. The articles were composed by Kipling from secret reports to the British Admiralty made available to him for propaganda purposes and comprise: I Some Work in the Baltic; II Business in the Sea of Marmora; and III Ravages and Repairs.
