19156<p>12mo. AEG. 276 pp. 4 pp. ads. Publisher's presentation blue cloth binding with illustrated dust jacket. The evidence indicates that this jacket and binding are original unused stock from the 1890s. During the 1900-20 period Macmillan offered four Kipling titles - <em>The Jungle Book The Second Jungle Book Captains Courageous</em> and <em>Soldier Tales</em> - in "special bindings for presentation" in addition to the standard red cloth trade editions. The bindings and jackets used for this special offering match the original bindings and jackets issued on those same four titles in the 1890s and at the same 6-shillings price on the jacket spines. If Macmillan had been issuing new bindings and jackets to replicate the 1890s style it probably would not have included Soldier Tales a very slow seller in such an offering. Nor were any popular post-1900 titles such as Kim or Puck of Pook's Hill included in this special offering - just the four titles that originally had the ornate blue bindings and illustrated jackets in the 1890s - thus the conclusion that Macmillan was using up leftover bindings and jackets. This copy slightly musty and cocked usual endpaper offsetting binding clean and unworn very good jacket with minor perimeter chips and tears but almost no loss a few bits of old tape on underside but clean complete and attractive. Kipling's classic children's story with a rare 1890s jacket of which only a handful survived on 1890s copies and with few if any surviving examples recorded on presentation copies - not seen by Richards for his 2010 Kipling bibliography.

The Jungle Book first published in 1894 is a collection of stories by the English author Rudyard Kipling. <br /> <br /> Most of the characters are animals such as Shere Khan the tiger and Baloo the bear though a principal character is the boy or "man-cub" Mowgli who is raised in the jungle by wolves.<br /> <br /> The stories are set in a forest in India. A major theme is abandonment followed by fostering as in the life of Mowgli echoing Kipling's own childhood. Another important theme is of law and freedom; the stories are not about animal behavior but about human archetypes in animal form.<br /> <br /> They teach respect for authority obedience and knowing one's place in society with 'the law of the jungle' but the stories also illustrate the freedom to move between different worlds such as when Mowgli moves between the jungle and the village.<br /> <br /> Critics have also noted the essential wildness and lawless energies in the stories reflecting the irresponsible side of human nature. wiki Doubleday & Company hardcover

Octavo bound in full leather with gilt titles and tooling to the spine in six compartments within raised gilt bands gilt turn-ins and inner dentelles marbled endpapers all edges gilt. Illustrated by J. Lockwood Kipling C.I.E. and W.H. Drake. In near fine condition. An exceptional presentation. Kipling's Jungle Books center on the story of Mowgli an orphaned 'man-cub' who is raised in the jungle of India by wolves where he comes to learn the Laws of the Jungle. A major theme throughout the books is abandonment followed by fostering as in the life of Mowgli echoing Kipling's own childhood. Another is law vs. freedom; the stories are not about animal behavior but about human archetypes in animal form.

1914148359London: Macmillan and Co. Limited 1914. The Bombay editions of both volumes of The Jungle Book. Octavo two volumes bound in three-quarters morocco by Morell with gilt titles to the spine in six compartments within raised gilt bands top edge gilt marbled endpapers. One of 1050 copies. In near fine condition. A sharp example. The Jungle Book is a collection of fables which provide moral instruction by using animals anthropomorphically. The inspiration for the book is evident. Kipling was born in India and he spent his childhood there. Interestingly Kipling wrote these stories when he lived in Vermont. The Jungle Book is used to develop the morale of the junior element of the Scouting movement "The Cub Scouts". The name of the head wolf "Akela" has been traditionally given to each Cub Scout pack leader. At least fifteen movies were released based on Kipling's stories beginning with Elephant Boy in 1937. A live-action version of Jungle Book was released in October of 2016 by Walt Disney Pictures. Macmillan and Co., Limited unknown
