Being Kipling

About this book

"This biography exposes Rudyard Kipling's identity as he himself perceived it through the lens of a collection of works composed over a period of years and brought together in the volume "Land and Sea Tales for Scouts and Guides." Dillingham uses this collection to offer rare insight into formative events from Kipling's youth that shaped his personality and made him the man and writer that he become."--[book cover].
