Rudyard Kipling: Collected Works

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Rudyard Kipling's works were sometimes collected by him, sometimes he was forced into doing so by publishers of 'unauthorised' editions (Abaft the Funnel, From Sea to Sea, for example), and sometimes his work was never collected. The lists given below include all the collections that were acknowledged by Kipling as his own work. However, it is possible to find other works that appeared in American but not English editions, works that only appeared in the original newspaper publication, and some that only appeared in the Sussex and Burwash editions.
