1915réf. 149451915. I & II. The Auxiliary Fleet. / III & IV. Submarines. / V & VI. Patrols. Together six volumes. Garden City NY: Doubleday Page & Company 1915. Original light yellow wrappers lettered in green. First Editions being the American copyright issues limited according to DP&Co's annotated copy to 75 copies each. These six articles written at the instance of the Ministry of Information were issued separately from November 19th through December 1st 1915. The English and American book editions were then published sometime in December; a year later they were collected in Kipling's book SEA WARFARE December 1916. Each of the six volumes leads off with an original poem written by Kipling for the occasion. The Vol VI poem reads "Twelve verses omitted." between the third verse and the last verse: this "was only a little joke of Kipling's to indicate that it would of course take a very lengthy poem to give any idea of the dangers and tribulations incurred by the North Sea patrol" Richards. The first volume has just a hint of cover soil but otherwise all six are fine and un-worn other than the usual minor rusting of the staples. Richards A282; Stewart 394. unknown books

This set contained in a custom blue cloth slipcase. Few books have shaped the imagination of childhood quite like Kipling's Jungle Books. First published in 1894 and 1895 these two volumes introduced the world to Mowgli Baloo Bagheera Kaa and Shere Khan. The timeless stories blended fable folklore and imperial adventure into one of the most enduring classics of English literature. The Jungle Book 1894 includes the first appearance of "Mowgli's Brothers" "Kaa's Hunting" and "Tiger! Tiger!" alongside such favorites as "Rikki-Tikki-Tavi." The Second Jungle Book 1895 continued the talesdeepening the Mowgli cycle and adding enduring pieces like "The King's Ankus" and "Red Dog." Together the two books form the complete Mowgli canon. First edition sets in original cloth are increasingly scarce especially when both volumes present well. These are the foundational works of Kipling's career - the stories that earned him the Nobel Prize in Literature 1907 and secured his place in the canon of English storytelling. Based on folktales and legends that Kipling learned during his childhood in India the Jungle Books were met with huge success upon publication and continue to enthrall readers of all ages to this day. According to Professor Edwin L. Miller their publication "caused even severe critics of Kipling's previous work to admit that he is a writer of inspired genius." Largely focused on man's relationship to nature the Jungle Books in part narrate the tales of Mowgli a human "man-cub" raised by wolves as he tries to find his proper place in the world. As he struggles with his own identity he finds allies and adversaries among the animal communities through which he travels. They also include the story of Rikki-Tikki-Tavi the heroic mongoose who would later inspire an animated short voiced by Orson Welles. For contributions like these Kipling became the first English-language writer and the youngest ever to receive the Nobel Prize for Literature. Very Good Near Fine. Macmillan and Co unknown books
