Cormac McCarthy 1933–2023 was an American novelist whose stark prose and often violent themes earned him recognition as one of the most influential literary voices of the late twentieth and early twenty-first centuries. His best-known works include Blood Meridian 1985 regarded as a masterpiece of the American West and frontier violence and the Border Trilogy—All the Pretty Horses 1992 The Crossing 1994 and Cities of the Plain 1998—which brought him both critical acclaim and commercial success with All the Pretty Horses winning the National Book Award. Later No Country for Old Men 2005 and The Road 2006 achieved bestseller status with the latter earning him the Pulitzer Prize and cementing his reputation as a chronicler of human survival and moral ambiguity. In near fine condition. The piece measures 6 inches by 7.5 inches. Housed in a hand-made cloth folder by the Harcourt Bindery. "If—" first appeared in the "Brother Square Toes" chapter of the book Rewards and Fairies a collection of Kipling's poetry and short-story fiction published in 1910. In his posthumously published autobiography Something of Myself 1937 Kipling said that in writing the poem he was inspired by the character of Leander Starr Jameson leader of the failed Jameson Raid against the Transvaal Republic to overthrow the Boer Government of Paul Kruger. The failure of that mercenary coup d'état aggravated the political tensions between Great Britain and the Boers which led to the Second Boer War 1899–1902.As an evocation of Victorian-era stoicism—the "stiff upper lip" self-discipline which popular culture rendered into a British national virtue and character trait "If—" remains a cultural touchstone. hardcover
