1904ref. 587851London: Charles Sheard & Co 1904. Softcover. Very Good. First edition. Folio. Two nested bifolia making eight pages. Composer's name stamp and "file copy" stamp on the front cover outer bifolium separating a bit at both ends of the fold light edgewear and toning a very good and complete copy. For voice and piano. Plate imprint "Lichenberg. E." The following note is printed above the music "The blossoms of the Australian Wattle Tree a species of Acacia emit a remarkably fragrant perfume more particularly after rain: the sudden recognition of this scent on an occasion during the Transvaal campaign awakens thoughts of 'Home sweet home' in the breast of an Australian Trooper." Gerard F. Cobb is primarily remembered for his musical settings to Kipling's words this perhaps being his last such composition as he passed away in March of the year it was published. This song is unrecorded by OCLC and appears equally scarce in the trade; in fact the only references we can find to the piece online are are The Kipling Society citing a record of it in Rudyard Kipling A Bibliographical Catalogue by James McGregor Stewart and a 2005 recording released by ABC Records-Australia on an album titled When the Empire Calls. A rare and intriguing piece. Charles Sheard & Co unknown

This is a very pleasing copy in quite an attractive leather binding of a collection of 51 Kipling poems including "Song of the English" "The Rhyme of the Three Sealers" and "The Story of Ung." Day writes that "people uninterested in poetry 'qua' poetry were thrilled by the splendor and spread of empire as glorified in this work. Kipling's Toryism made the mediocre Alfred Austin the poet laureate in 1896 but Kipling was the unofficial laureate of the British empire." One of Britain's best-known writers Rudyard Kipling 1865-1936 is most famous for his works portraying the lives of the native population and colonialists on the Indian subcontinent. He was born in Bombay where his father ran an art school and he lived in India until the age of six. He was sent to school in England but chose to return to the East at 18. He proved to be a prolific author writing novels tales for children and adults and many poems. Kipling's wife was American and they lived for a time in Vermont but from 1896 the couple settled in England. Among his many honors are a Nobel Prize 1907 and the Gold Medal of the Royal Society of Literature 1926 which had previously only been awarded to Scott Meredith and Hardy. Copies of the present book are easy to find but they are not so readily available in reasonably priced pretty bindings like the one offered here. Methuen and Co unknown
