What Our Customers Say...

Description

First Edition, Illustrated, Publishers' Original Binding

The first edition of this work.

'Rewards and Fairies' is a collection of historical fantasy short stories by Rudyard Kipling.

The stories and poems in this work are a linked narrative. It follows Kipling's other work, 'Puck of Pook's Hill', and is set one year later.

The stories follow Dan and Una who live in the Weald of Sussex, two children who had encountered Puck. He magically conjures up real and fictional characters to tell stories to the children.

Illustrated with four plates.

Collated, complete.

Kipling is best known for his works 'The Jungle Book', and 'Kim'. He was born in India and found a lot of his work inspired by the country, and he was one of the most popular writers of his time.

Ten pages of publisher's adverts to the rear.

Condition
