The writing though is so of it's time that it became completely obtuse in places and was a drag to read. Certainly not one just to dip in and out of, only for those with a sincere (and already well researched) love of or fascination with Mr Kipling.

Something of Myself, Rudyard Kipling
Something of Myself is a collection of essays/chapters/writings by Rudyard Kipling describing his life; his childhood, working life and the places he has lived. I was expecting it to be 'of the times' and was aware of Kipling's more controversial opinions which led me to think it would be an interesting read.
