"They had good reason to be proud and better reason to be afraid, all twelve of them, for, though they had fought their way, game by game, up the line of teams entered for the polo tournament, they were meeting the Archangels that afternoon in the final match" So begins Rudyard Kipling's wonderful tale "The Maltese Cat," which has all the verve and vigor associated with the author's best-loved stories.
