1906125313Leipzig: Bernhard Tauchnitz 1906. First Tauchnitz edition of Kipling's collection of historical fantasy tales. Octavo original wrappers. In good condition. Set in multiple periods of English history Kipling's Puck stories are each narrated to two children living near Burwash in the High Weald of Sussex in the area of Kipling's own house Bateman's by people magically plucked out of history by the elf Puck or told by Puck himself. Puck who refers to himself as "the oldest Old Thing in England" is better known as a character in William Shakespeare's play A Midsummer Night's Dream. The genres of the stories range from authentic historical novella A Centurion of the Thirtieth On the Great Wall to children's fantasy Dymchurch Flit. Each story is bracketed by a poem which relates in some manner to the theme or subject of the story. Bernhard Tauchnitz unknown books
1937120976London: MacMillan and Co. Limited 1937. First edition of Kipling's autobiography. Octavo original cloth frontispiece. Fine in a near fine dust jacket. Kipling began work on the autobiography on 1 August 1935 and was last reported to work on it doing revisions on 26 December of the same year. He died on 18 January 1936. The unfinished manuscript was edited and prepared for publication by his wife Caroline Starr Balestier. After preliminary printing of selections from the text in a number of newspapers the book was published by Macmillan Kipling's established UK publisher on 21 December 1937. Kipling had stated the intention to deal in this account with "his life from the point of view of his work". He thus focuses on describing the inspiration genesis and workmanship of his literary creations while remaining reticent on most facets of his private life that are not directly connected to his works.
