Publisher's Synopsis

"Barrack-Room Ballads" is a collection of poems by Rudyard Kipling, first published in 1892. The poems are written in a variety of styles, from the humorous to the serious, and are set in a variety of locations, from India to South Africa. The poems explore themes of British imperialism, colonialism, and the military life of the British Empire. Kipling's work is often seen as a celebration of British imperialism, but it also contains a strong sense of irony and criticism. Other notable works by this author include: "The Jungle Book" (1894), "Kim" (1901), and "Just So Stories" (1902). Many vintage books such as this are becoming increasingly scarce and expensive.
