Kipling, Rudyard — Kipling's Message

London, W. H. Smith & Son, 1918. Later Printing. Softcover. Ivory stapled wraps with red and blue border surrounding a silhouette of Kipling facing left; 12 pp. The text of a speech delivered by Kipling on February 15, 1918 at Folkestone. His thoughts on the Germans and their atrocities during the Great War. This is a later printing, still possibly 1918, but not a first edition. A very nice copy. VG, clean and tight but for ever so slight rubbing in two spots on back cover .
