Overview

Excerpt from The Less Familiar Kipling: And Kiplingana The star of Rudyard Kipling first rose in England in 1888. He was well known in India before then. But one might be giant enough in India to span in one stretch from Cape Comorin to Peshawar, and yet be entirely unknown and unheard of in England. If Kipling had not been endowed with extraordinary talent his books would never have made their way. India attracts very little notice or interest, and it is a tribute to his genius that he was able to dish up the dry bones of Indian life in a form so palatable that he gained admittance to the portals of the Temple of Fame.
