Price: US$115.28 + shipping
Description: A two volume set of Rudyard Kipling first editions. Comprising of Stalky and Co. as well as Debits and Credits, the works here show the breadth of Kipling's abilities, with the former book a novel and the latter a collection of short stories, poems and scenes for a play. Both volumes are decorated with Kipling's signature elephant to the boards, a nod to his time in, and love for, India, something also related to in the Hindu symbols found to the endpages. Stalky and Co. features the bookplate of one G.W. Bell. In decorative cloth binding with gilt detailing. Externally quite smart, there is some wear to the boards, extremities and joints, as well as some sunning to spines. The hinge of Stalky and Co. is tender. Internally, the pages are generally firmly bound, although there is some light strain in places, and are bright and clean throughout, aside from the odd instance of spotting throughout. Very Good Indeed

Kipling was born in India, which inspired much of his work and his innovative stories for children have become timeless classics. He became one of the most popular writers in the British Empire, in both prose and verse, in the late 19th and early 20th centuries and was awarded the Nobel Prize in literature in 1907. Kipling's Stalky & Co. follows the story of a group of raucous adolescent boys at a British boarding school.

Description: First Edition, First Issue. A truly lovely collector's copy, near fine, in the publisher's original red cloth boards, still as unworn,unmarked and bright as they were when new, with the circular gilt elephant motif in blind on the front board gleaming and unrubbed.Corners sharp.Rarely found in such beautiful condition. The only (very minor defects) are that the top and bottoms of the spine show slight shelf wear and there is offsetting on the ffep.from the red leather bookplate of the Estelle Doheny Collection. This was one of the books from the collection sold at auction at Sotheby's New York over 19 months in 1988/99. With a slipped in Macmillan & Co. advertisement for the forthcoming UK edition of 'Richard Carvel' by the American novelist Winston Churchill, also published in 1899. 8vo.pp.xxii, 272+2 pages of advertisements at rear. Stalky & Co., Kipling's subversive and unsentimental version of the traditional school story exemplified by "Tom Brown's Schooldays" was much criticized in its day. Somerset Maugham wrote; "A more odious portrait of school life can seldom have been drawn", while Robert Buchanan called its heroes Stalky, M'Turk and Beetle "these three small fiends in human likeness" and hated the "horrible vileness of the book" and "its truly repulsive character". But its lack of moralising, the exuberance and cunning of Stalky & Co and their ability to undermine their adversaries, whether prefects or teachers has ensured its popularity among children. Kipling based "The Coll" on his own school, The United Services College at Westward Ho! in Devon, and included a self-portrait in the character of "Beetle", who, like Kipling himself, was the only boy who wore glasses, and indeed was almost blind without them. He identifies so much with "Beetle" that he even refers to him as "I" in the last chapter.
