=Rudyard Kipling.= BARRACK-ROOM BALLADS; And Other Verses. By RUDYARD
KIPLING. _Seventh Edition. Crown 8vo. 6s._
A Special Presentation Edition, bound in white buckram, with extra
gilt ornament. 7_s._ 6_d._
‘Mr. Kipling’s verse is strong, vivid, full of character....
Unmistakable genius rings in every line.’—_Times._
‘The disreputable lingo of Cockayne is henceforth justified before the
world; for a man of genius has taken it in hand, and has shown,
beyond all cavilling, that in its way it also is a medium for
literature. You are grateful, and you say to yourself, half in envy
and half in admiration: “Here is a _book_; here, or one is a
Dutchman, is one of the books of the year.”’—_National Observer._
‘“Barrack-Room Ballads” contains some of the best work that Mr.
Kipling has ever done, which is saying a good deal. “Fuzzy-Wuzzy,”
“Gunga Din,” and “Tommy,” are, in our opinion, altogether superior
to anything of the kind that English literature has hitherto
produced.’—_Athenæum._
‘These ballads are as wonderful in their descriptive power as they are
vigorous in their dramatic force. There are few ballads in the
English language more stirring than “The Ballad of East and West,”
worthy to stand by the Border ballads of Scott.’—_Spectator._
‘The ballads teem with imagination, they palpitate with emotion. We
read them with laughter and tears; the metres throb in our pulses,
the cunningly ordered words tingle with life; and if this be not
poetry, what is?’—_Pall Mall Gazette._
=Henley.= LYRA HEROICA: An Anthology selected from the best English
