Scarce unauthorized edition of perhaps Kipling's most popular poetry collection. Octavo, original wrappers. In very good condition. This collection was so popular upon publication in 1892 it was pirated in a small number of unauthorized editions which were sold on the streets of London and quickly suppressed. Housed in a custom chemise case. Scarce. In the short span of four years, English author Rudyard Kipling produced, in addition to the Jungle Books, a collection of short stories (The Day's Work), a novel (Captains Courageous), and a profusion of poetry, including the volume The Seven Seas. The collection of Barrack-Room Ballads was issued in March 1892, first published individually for the most part in 1890, and containing his poems "Mandalay" and "Gunga Din".
