Published in 1909, this collection of short stories and poetry features some of Kipling’s most imaginative tales, including ‘An Habitation Enforced, ‘ the proto-steampunk ‘With the Night Mail, ‘ and ‘The Puzzler.’ As the New York Times reviewer wrote of this collection, ‘the mastery and wizardry . . . have not . . . failed or faded.’
