Kipling's Tales
December 11, 1890 issue

add to cart   close window

The article critically apprises literary works of Rudyard Kipling, the famous writer, as well as discusses his three books "Plain Tales From the Hills," "Indian Tales," and "The Courting of Dinah Shadd." Occasionally an author is so lucky as to capture the public before the critics got after him and such is the happy fortune of Kipling. Kipling is a born story-teller, born in a story telling land teeming with untold stories. The presence of many qualities that go to make enduring fame is more conspicuous than the absence of some which every author needs in order to take rank with the great. There is no hesitation, no shadow of self-doubt in Kipling.
