Aside from the aforementioned minor flaws this is still an exceptionally good unrestored copy. First edition of Kipling's debut published work. His previous writings had either been privately printed issued as offprints or included in collaborative books. At the time Kipling was serving as sub-editor of the Civil and Military Gazette an English-language newspaper based in Lahore that covered the lives of the Civil Service and the Indian Army in Punjab. His position combined with his family's social standing afforded him numerous opportunities to observe and explore the full spectrum of life in India. From an early age Kipling had been captivated by the vibrant and diverse world of native India and his keen observational skills allowed him to vividly capture its essence. As his engagement with journalism deepened he frequently filled the newspaper's pages with prose sketches and light verse. Eventually he began inserting his own poems under the title Departmental Ditties into the newspaper culminating in the publication of this edition designed to resemble a bundle of civil service memoranda.

1916ref. BIBLIO-58769Doubleday Page & Company Garden City first editions 1916. Editions of 70 copies. 4 vols printed wrappers. A complete set of the true first editions of these four articles these American copyright issues preceding the newspaper publication in The Daily Telegraph and The New York Times in October 1916. Here the articles are simply titled Destroyers at Jutland I -IV; in the newspapers they were given titles as follows: Stories of the Battle"; The Night Hunt The Meaning of 'Joss' and The Minds of Men. Kipling's accounts are chiefly concerned with "destroyer actions on the 31st May and 1st June: mostly but not entirely of the confused night-fighting after the engagements between the two main battle-fleets" Alastair Wilson on the Kipling Society website. He opens: "THERE was much destroyer-work in the Battle of Jutland. The actual battle field may not have been more than twenty thousand square miles but the incidental patrols from first to last must have covered many times that area. Doubtless the next generation will comb out every detail of it. All we need remember is there were many squadrons of battleships and cruisers engaged over the face of the North Sea and that they were accompanied in their dread comings and goings by multitudes of destroyers who attacked the enemy both by day and by night from the afternoon of May 31 to the morning of June 1 1916." Three of the pamphlets contain one of Kipling's poems the first being the very poignant "Have you news of my boy Jack". Near Fine set in a chemise and somewhat worn leather-backed slipcase.
