Title: Land and Sea Tales for Scouts and Guides by Rudyard Kipling
Summary: Land and Sea Tales bring together a collection of Kipling's strikingly honest short stories. As with many of his other works, these tales take on the themes of bravery and honour in the face of adversity, and more often than not in the face of war - perhaps Kipling's greatest preoccupation. With an international cast of characters set in a host of exotic and dangerous locations, this rich selection includes such tales as 'An Unqualified Pilot', 'The Burning of Sarah Sands' and 'An English School'. Originally written for the scout and guide groups that Kipling was so dedicated to, now some seventy years on, these tales are eminently suitable for readers of all ages.
