[EAN: 9781537748801], Neubuch, [PU: CreateSpace Independent Publishing Platform], RUDYARD KIPLING,LITERATURE, This item is printed on demand. Paperback. 46 pages. Dimensions: 9.0in. x 6.0in. x 0.1in.A short story inspired by the travels of American adventurer Josiah Harlan that follows two British ex-soldiers who set off from 19th century British India in search of adventure and end up as kings of Kafiristan (now part of Afghanistan). It was a shade cooler in the press-room than the office, so I sat there, while the type ticked and clicked, and the night-jars hooted at the windows, and the all but naked compositors wiped the sweat from their foreheads and called for water. The thing that was keeping us back, whatever it was, would not come off, though the loo dropped and the last type was set, and the whole round earth stood still in the choking heat, with its finger on its lip, to wait the event. I drowsed, and wondered whether the telegraph was a blessing, and whether this dying man, or struggling people, was aware of the inconvenience the delay was causing. There was no special reason beyond the heat and worry to make tension, but, as the clock-hands crept up to three oclock and the machines spun their fly-wheels two and three times to see that all was in order, before I said the word that would set them off. This item ships from La Vergne,TN.<
