An attractive framed presentation incorporating an authentic autograph of Rudyard Kipling one of the most celebrated English writers of the late nineteenth and early twentieth centuries and the first English-language writer to receive the Nobel Prize in Literature. Joseph Rudyard Kipling was born in Bombay in 1865 and spent much of his early life in British India an experience which profoundly influenced his literary career. His extraordinary range encompassed poetry short stories novels and children's literature. His best-known works include The Jungle Book 1894 The Second Jungle Book 1895 Kim 1901 and Just So Stories for Little Children 1902 together with such celebrated poems as "Mandalay" "Gunga Din" "Recessional" and "If - ." In 1907 Kipling was awarded the Nobel Prize in Literature becoming both the first English-language recipient and at the age of forty-one the youngest recipient to that date. The Nobel committee praised his powers of observation originality of imagination virility of ideas and remarkable talent for narration. The autograph itself is particularly appealing: it is a clean legible example of Kipling's familiar flowing signature with the distinctive formation of the capital R and K and it presents extremely well within the custom display. n.p.: , 1900 unknown

1901ref. 134755London: Macmillan and Co. Limited 1901. First English edition of what many consider Kipling’s masterpiece. Octavo original cloth. Illustrated with photographs of clay reliefs by John Lockwood Kipling including tissue-guarded frontispiece two pages of advertisements at rear. In near fine condition. An exceptional example. Kim unfolds against the backdrop of The Great Game the political conflict between Russia and Britain in Central Asia. The novel made the term "Great Game" popular and introduced the theme of great power rivalry and intrigue. It is set after the Second Afghan War which ended in 1881 but before the Third probably in the period 1893 to 1898. The novel is notable for its detailed portrait of the people culture and varied religions of India. "The book presents a vivid picture of India its teeming populations religions and superstitions and the life of the bazaars and the road." Considered by many to be Kipling's masterpiece opinion appears varied about its consideration as children's literature or not. Roger Sale in his history of children's literature concludes "Kim is the apotheosis of the Victorian cult of childhood but it shines now as bright as ever long after the Empire's collapse." It was the basis for the 1950 film starring Errol Flynn Dean Stockwell and Paul Lukas. Named by Modern Library as one of the 100 best English-language novels of the 20th century. In 2003 the book was listed on the BBC's The Big Read poll of the UK's "best-loved novel." Macmillan and Co., Limited hardcover
