Housed in a red cloth chemise within a full red morocco velvet lined 'jewel-case'. Spine with five raised bands lettered in gilt in compartments brass lock. First edition of Kipling's very rare second book; the "two writers" of the title were Kipling and his sister Alice "Trix". Of the 39 poems mostly "echoes" or imitations of well-known poets 32 are ascribed to Kipling and 7 to his sister. First published in Lahore in August 1884 the volume appeared when Kipling then 18 years old had been living in India for nearly two years. It was printed by the Civil and Military Gazette Press where Kipling served as sub-editor and he personally oversaw its production. In December 1883 Kipling's mother brought his 15-year-old sister Trix from England to join him. Together they engaged in a series of literary experiments and playful compositions producing a substantial collection of poems-primarily parodies of well-known poets-by the spring of 1884. Encouraged by their efforts Rudyard published a selection of these works in August of that year under the title Echoes by Two Writers. The Poems: Echoes: Introduction 1.
