First published in book form in 1899, & reissued here in the 1928 Macmillan edition, this two-volume collection contains a series of letters & travel reports originally written for newspapers by the young Rudyard Kipling (1865-1936) on his journeys around India, Burma, China, Japan & the United States between 1887 & 1889. The 1907 Nobel Prize winner's characteristic fluid writing style is already apparent in these funny, poignant & vivid articles and short stories. Providing revealing insights into Kipling's notions of imperialism & Englishness, the works also reflect the writer's keen observational powers, & a telling intelligent self-awareness of his own cultural prejudices. Volume 1 contains Kipling's Letters of Marque & 24 pieces from From Sea to Sea, including descriptions of his experiences of the Great Wall of China, Japanese theatre & visiting a slaughterhouse in Chicago.

"Kipling was just twenty-three years old when he reached San Francisco in May 1889; he immediately began recording the sights and sounds of boom-town America. For four months he toured the United States, publishing accounts of his journey in the Pioneer, a major newspaper in western India. A few years later, when he lived in Vermont, Kipling wrote several syndicated articles published in both England and the U.S. Then in 1899 he revised and abridged the Pioneer versions and published them in From Sea to Sea. The second series of syndicated articles he collected in Letters of Travel (1920). Most of these travel writings are now out of print. In Kipling's America, Professor D.H. Stewart brings all of these articles together and reproduces the original printed versions. Readers are provided with the opportunity to hear again Kipling at his cocky and often opinionated best. From Kipling's perspective, America unleashed the chaotic energy latent in human beings, and he was uncertain whether this energy inevitably would be productive or destructive." "That some of his impressions were one-dimensional is undeniable, but equally undeniable is his gift of language - his access to a ready lexicon often composed of what he termed a "perpetual Pentecost" to describe the "talking in tongues" heard in British Overseas Clubs throughout the Empire. This hodgepodge of European languages (counter-pointed with pidgin English, Chinese, Hindi, American) produced a symphony (or cacophony) of bountiful word play."--Jacket.
