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.

1885réf. 155839Lahore: The "Civil and Military Gazette" Press 1885. An early Kipling rarity and first appearance of a classic ghost story First edition first impression of the book written by members of the Kipling family. Published in an edition of 250 copies it is rare in original wrappers and with advertisements at the end. The book includes the first appearance of "The Phantom 'Rickshaw'" and "The Strange Ride of Morrowbie Jukes C. E.". Kipling described the conception of this work in his autobiography Something of Myself 1937. He noted that "in the cold weather of 1885 we four made up a Christmas annual. which pleased us a good deal and attracted a certain amount of attention. Later much later it became a 'collector's piece' in the US book-market and to that extent smudged the memories of its birth". The 16 pieces comprising eight in prose and eight in verse were written by "four Anglo-Indian writers" as described on the title page and remaining anonymous throughout the book who were Kipling his father mother and sister. Kipling had initiated the publication with the Civil and Military Gazette and it was sold by subscription. This slim volume gave the 19 year old writer an opportunity to publish his work and he contributed half of the texts. The ghost stories would become better-known and were reprinted within The Phantom 'Rickshaw and other tales in 1890. Kipling's father had been somewhat against publication of Quartette and wrote to Margaret Burne-Jones that he had hoped that someone would "rap Rudyard's knuckles for the unwholesomeness of 'The Phantom 'Rickshaw' and the coarseness of the 'Tragedy of Teeth'". The binding of the publication was particularly chaotic. According to Kipling the work took place at night by candlelight and he provided workers on overtime with tots of brandy and plugs of free tobacco to encourage the "forty odd men besides binders to keep Quartette going". Publication was announced on 19 December and the front cover was possibly designed by John Lockwood Kipling then serving as the first principal of the Mayo School of Art in Lahore. Richards notes that the advertisements "sometimes vary in number". He states "copies are known with only three leaves or four leaves or six or even eight with a blank final yellow leaf instead of the more standard seven. Copies were also bound without advertisements at Kipling's direction for family members. In some copies the last of the seven leaves of advertisements is pink rather than pale yellow". Additionally "the rear endsheet has been excised from some copies. with the stub pasted to the terminal leaf of advertisements". The present copy carries seven leaves of which the final leaf is pink. Octavo. Original wrappers printed in black. Housed in a red cloth chemise with a red morocco-backed slipcase. Ownership signature on front wrapper. Loss to most of spine minor chip at top right corner of front wrapper some slight rust-staining; a very good copy and a particularly attractive example.

The publisher's archives note that 50 copies of each pamphlet were printed. Complete sets in this condition are rare. In his after-dinner speech at the Kipling Society annual lunch in May 1999 David Alan Richards noted that Kipling's "London literary agent A. P. Watt and his New York publisher Frank N. Doubleday made extensive use of limited printings. to establish copyright in each country". Richards in his bibliography notes that it was reported that "most of the few copies printed" of this title "were mailed to newspapers and destroyed being separated into leaves for the convenience of linotype operators".

In 1/1878 Kipling was admitted to the United Services College at Westward Ho! Devon a school founded a few years earlier to prepare boys for the armed forces. The school proved rough going for him at first but led to firm friendships & provided the setting for his schoolboy stories Stalky & Co. published years later. During his time there he met & fell in love with Florence Garrard the model for Maisie in his 1st novel The Light That Failed initially published in 1890 in Lippincott's Monthly Magazine. Dick Heldar is a war correspondent & an artist known for the drawings he sends home to the London papers from wars in exotic places like Sudan. When he returns to London he attempts to make a career for himself as a serious artist & encounters his childhood sweetheart Maisie. They fall in love. Then he learns that a minor problem with his eyes is actually the onset of blindness incurable--the result of a head wound he took during the war. As his vision fails the light of everything around him--his life his hopes his dreams--fail with it. There are terrible choices to be made between the love of the woman he treasures & the love of the men who stood by him at the front. From Goodreads.
