Descrizione

First edition thus. Illustrated with numerous black and white illustrations throughout by noted British artist, illustrator and designer David Gentleman. 4to, publisher’s original green morocco, the spine lettered in gilt between raised bands and decorated in gilt with charming bamboo design, the covers also decorated with gilt bamboo designs, silk endpapers, a.e.g. xiv, 383, pp. An as mint copy, the book is pristine both inside and out, with a book plate affixed to the free-fly.

Edizione: a beautiful edition of this classic work. the stories of mowgli, a human child lost in the jungles of india and raised by wild animals, struck a cord with readers who somehow found him and his animal friends easy to relate with despite the bizarre circumstances. arguably the best loved of kipling’s many delightful works for children and a true classic of its genre.<br> the text includes both of the jungle books, taken from kipling’s first combined edition but with the addition of “in the rukh”, which kipling had omitted from his.
