New York: B. W. Dodge & Company, 1909. Octavo, pp. [i-iv] v-viii 1-360, original pictorial blue cloth stamped in red. First edition, second binding. "'Abaft the Funnel' was a title first used for a series of eight stories written by Kipling for the CIVIL AND MILITARY GAZETTE which were first collected in TURN-OVERS, volumes V, VI, and VII. These were written during Kipling's journey in 1889 from India to England via Burma, China, Japan, and the United States ... In 1909, B. W. Dodge & Company, New York, used the title for an unauthorized volume containing thirty stories, letters, and articles, and one poem, of which twenty-two of the stories and the poem has previously appeared in TURN-OVERS. In order to discourage the sale of the unauthorized edition, Kipling instructed Doubleday, Page & Company to issue a volume containing the same material and which was to retail at 19 cents ... The first English printing was in volume XXX of the Sussex edition, 1938." - Stewart 324. A very good copy, previous owners inscription to front free end paper, light rubbing to edges, touch of fraying to spine ends, some rubbing to rear cover; No dust jacket. (#125861)

Description:
New York: Doubleday, Page & Company, 1909. Hard Cover. Very Good/No Jacket. 0x0x0. No jacket. Board corners bumped, ink gift note on front endpaper. 1909 Hard Cover. viii, 323 pp. The measure of a man's popularity is not always --or indeed seldom-- the measure of his intrinsic worth. So, when the earlier work of any writer is gathered together in more enduring form, catering to the enthusiasm of his readers in his maturer years, there is always a suspicion that his venture is purely a commercial one, without literary justification. Fortunately these thirty-one stories of Mr. Kipling's form their own best excuse for this, their first appearance together in book form. Not merely because in them may be traced the origin of that style and subject matter that later made their author famous; but because the stories are in themselves worth while --worth writing, and worth reading.

Description:
MP3 Audio CD. Rudyard Kipling (1868 ? 1936) began his adventures in writing short stories at an early age, during his time spent working at the Civil and Military Gazette in Lahore, India. His talent was quickly noted, and it wasn?t long before he would receive due recognition for short story collections like his Plain Tales from the Hills, In Black and White or The Phantom ?Rickshaw and Other Eerie Tales.Compiled in 1909, Abaft the Funnel is one of Rudyard Kipling?s most controversial short story collections, due to the fact that Kipling wasn?t keen about their eventual reprinting. The stories themselves, however, stand tall and proud as some of his best works, encompassing many nautical stories, some of which will keep you at the edge of your seat, while others will give you a good laugh.Kipling?s storytelling approach is definitely in a class of its own. Using genuine nautical terms and phrases that only the sailors of old would utilize in conversation, he set the stage masterfully to immerse the…
