Rudyard Kipling is Britain's favourite poet. Born in India and experiencing first-hand the glory days of the British Empire he wrote some of the most memorable lines in British literature. He found the stability of an English life when he bought his house, Bateman's in Sussex, in 1902. Here he wrote, recalling the glories of Empire and enjoying being an English gentleman. Patriotism and the exotic nature of the India he had known fill his poetry and prose.
Kipling's The Jungle Book, Just So Stories and Puck of Pook's Hill are just three of his works from which this anthology of stirring and memorable lines are taken.
