Something Of Myself: For My Friends Known And Unknown

About the Book;This book is a short autobiography of the seminal English poet and author Rudyard Kipling. Kipling wrote it in the last year of his life; the unfinished text was prepared for publication by his wife. It has remained in print since its first publication in 1937. It offers a unique insight into the life and mind of this prolific man of letters, who strove to uphold the Victorian values of patriotism, duty, and obedience; yet simultaneously sympathized with outlaws and children. This autobiography outlines his unhappy childhood years in the ‘House of Desolation’, his doting parents, and the pride he took in his work. The chapters of this book includeA Very Young Person, The School Before Its Time, Seven Years Hard, The Interregnum, The Committee of Ways and Means, South Africa, The VeryOwn House, etc. This book is proved to be handy in the context of autobiography.
