Publisher's Synopsis

Plain Tales From The Hills is a collection of short stories written by Rudyard Kipling.

The stories revolve around the lives of British colonizers and their interactions with the Indian population. The book contains 40 stories, each with its own unique plot and characters. Some of the stories are humorous while others are more serious, but all of them provide a vivid portrayal of life in India during the colonial period.
