Description

This black-and-white edition contains the original illustrations by Maurice and Edward J.

Detmold. A full-color edition is also available...........Critics on The Jungle Book and Kipling: "What difference does it make if he is an insufferable Tory?

He wrote The Jungle Book. Has everybody forgotten that?" - Hilton Brown.......... "One of the most enjoyable books of my childhood and even in adulthood, highly informative as to the outlook of the British on their 'native population'." - Sayan Mukherjee .......... "The moralist is always present, even in those tales of The Jungle Book which are taken by many readers to be merely fantasies to amuse the very young.

It may be the moralist in Kipling that is displeasing to those intellectuals who have belittled him in my time.

He was well aware that the moral is unwelcome, and must be insinuated, or conveyed (as we say nowadays) subliminally." - T.S.

Eliot
