Price: US$115.28 + shipping
Description: A pleasing first edition first issue copy of this renowned collection of poetry by Rudyard Kipling. A first edition first issue copy, with the issue point of 'David' to page 56 line 9 (that was later changed to 'Saul') and publisher's advertisements dated 'July 1903'. This work is split into two sections: the first covering a wide range of subjects and the second section entitled 'Service Songs', containing poems about British soldiers at the turn of the twentieth century. Kipling is best known for his novel 'The Jungle Book', however he was a prolific writer of poems, novels, and short stories. Being born in India inspired much of his work, and he went on to become one of the most popular writers of his time. With an extensive publisher's catalogue to the rear of the work, dated 'July 1903'. In the publisher's original cloth binding, with gilt title to spine. Externally excellent with minor shelfwear to extremities and slight fading to spine, as expected with this colour binding. Small ink mark to head of spine. Age toning to endpapers. Internally firmly bound. Pages slightly age toned to extremities but very bright and clean. The odd spot to first and last few pages and fore edges, only visible to textblock. The occasional page uncut throughout. Very Good Indeed

Description: Octavo. First edition. pp xi, [2], 215, edges uncut, top edge gilt, occasional foxing. In a PAINTED VELLUM BINDING, with VIV marked out within a floral design with birds and peacocks, with marbled endpapers. Armorial bookplate of Hastings to verso of flyleaf, with the motto Justitiae Tenax. One would expect a vellum binding such as this to be Italian, from Florence, (also from the endpapers), though there is no binder s label. However, the supposition is reinforced by the Hastings family bookplate: Lord Hastings was Chairman of the British School in Florence throughout much of the twentieth century, and decorated by the Italian government for his services to culture and art.

Description: Large paper edition of Kipling's notable poetry collection. Large octavo, original quarter parchment over paper-covered boards. One of 200 copies on handmade paper. In fine condition. Housed in a custom half morocco and chemise case. First published in 1903, Kipling's The Five Nations included a number of new poems as well as several that had been previously published (notably Recessional of 1897). In 1903, the United Kingdom consisted of four nations: England, Ireland, Scotland and Wales. It was soon suggested that Kipling's "five nations" were the "five free nations of Canada, Australia, New Zealand, South Africa [i.e. Cape Colony], and 'the islands of the sea' [i.e. the British Isles]" - all dominated by Britons; and except in the last case, by recent settlers. That suggestion was endorsed some one hundred years later.
