This book is an intellectual adventure on Rudyard Kipling, one of the most controversial writers in the history of English literature. One must know that Kipling is both loved and hated for his finest writings and political ideas about Britain. Mr. Kipling, as an Anglo-Indian writer stayed in India for many years and he had his boyhood here. After his education at Southsea and Westward Ho! he joined the Civil and Military Gazatte at Lahore and then he worked for the Pioneer in Allahabad. Critics like T. S. Eliot and Edmund Wilson think that he has depicted India in the best possible manner. The book deals with Anglo-Indian literature, Kiplings life and works, critical analysis of his novels and the short-fiction, non-fictional prose and about his vision of the British Empire.
