About This Item
Synopsis
The Portable Kipling contains selections from The Jungle Books and Soldiers Three ; more than twenty stories, including " The Man Who Would Be King ," " The Cat that Walked by Himself ," " The Eye of Allah ," and the unsettling " Mary Postgate "; more than fifty poems; and three essays. The volume also includes a complete chronology and a critical introduction by Irving Howe that permits us to see the formal achievements of Kipling's work as well as to enjoy its abundant pleasures—not least of which is the sheer satisfaction of great storytelling.
