Mulvaney Stories (1897)

By Rudyard Kipling

Book Overview

Mulvaney Stories is a collection of short stories written by Rudyard Kipling and first published in 1897. The stories are set in India during the British Raj and follow the adventures of three soldiers - Terence Mulvaney, Michael ""Ortheris"" Learoyd, and Daniel Dravot - who serve in the British Army. Mulvaney, the main character, is a colorful and irreverent Irishman who regales his fellow soldiers with tales of his exploits and adventures. The stories are humorous, adventurous, and at times, poignant, and provide a glimpse into the life of soldiers serving in India during the late 19th century. Kipling's writing style is characterized by his use of colloquial language and vivid descriptions of the Indian landscape and people. Mulvaney Stories is a classic work of literature that continues to be enjoyed by readers today.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
