«The Complete Barrack-room Ballads of Rudyard Kipling» is a collection of poems by Rudyard Kipling, in paperback (176 pages), published by Methuen.
The poems in this collection portray the daily life of soldiers of the British Empire: their complaints, hopes and aspirations, far from any heroic rhetoric. Kipling uses cockney English to give voice to the recruits, with irony and closeness.
This 1973 edition was prepared by Charles Carrington and takes the text from the volumes Barrack-Room Ballads, The Seven Seas, The Five Nations and The Years Between.
It will interest readers of English poetry, classics and historical fiction about military life.
Joseph Rudyard Kipling was an English journalist, novelist, poet and short-story writer. He was born in British India, which inspired much of his work.
