Greatest Short Stories Vol. V Foreign, 1940.
Excerpt from The Man Who Would Be King by Rudyard Kipling
Then the sickness really breaks out, and the less recording and reporting, the better for the peace of the subscribers. But the Empires and Kings continue to divert themselves as selfishly as before, and the Foreman thinks that a daily paper really ought to come out once in twenty-four hours, and all the people at the Hill Stations in the middle of their amusements say:-"Good Gracious! Why can't the paper be sparkling? I'm sure there's plenty going on up here."


Pushkin, Balzac, Doyle, Schnitzler, Chekhov, Dumas, Kipling, and many more… An excellent introduction to the classics.
