Originally published in 1923, this is Rudyard Kiplings little-known masterpiece, an utterly individual contribution to the art of regimental history writing, and possibly the best ever written for its economy of style and empathy with the fighting man. In August 1914, Kiplings son, John, was killed at the battle of Loos whilst serving with the Irish Guards and he instantly took up the regiments request to write their history in the First World War.
Rudyard Kipling was born in 1865 in Bombay. After his schooling he returned to India in 1882 where he spent seven years as a journalist and became well known for his light satirical verse. Returning to London in 1889 he soon gained an international reputation, and in 1907 won the Nobel Prize for literature. Among his most famous works are the Just So Stories and the two Jungle Books.
