Twelve of Kipling's celebrated tales of India--including one ghost story--are compiled and introduced by the author of the "The Far Pavillions", a worldwide bestseller, who, like Kipling, was raised in India. Rudyard Kipling (1865 1936) was an English novelist, short-story writer, poet, and journalist. He was born in British India, which inspired much of his work. Kipling's works of fiction include the Jungle Book dilogy (The Jungle Book, (1894); The Second Jungle Book, (1895), Kim (1901), the Just So Stories (1902) and many short stories, including The Man Who Would Be King (1888). He is seen as an innovator in the art of the short story. His children's books are classics; one critic noted "a versatile and luminous narrative gift." Kipling in the late 19th and early 20th centuries was among the United Kingdom's most popular writers. Henry James said "Kipling strikes me personally as the most complete man of genius.that I have ever known." In 1907, he was awarded the Nobel Prize in Literature, as the first English-language writer to receive the prize, and at 41, its youngest recipient to date.
