This new volume of The Letters of Rudyard Kipling, fully annotated, is one of six volumes which form the first comprehensive publication of Kipling's letters. The letters are varied and interesting in themselves, and provide the means for a greatly enlarged understanding of Kipling's life and works. This volume focuses on Kipling's life through the post-war decade of the 1920s.
