Letters of Travel

by Rudyard Kipling

Letters of Travel is a collection of travel writing by Rudyard Kipling, first published in 1895. The book comprises three sections: "From Tideway to Tideway" (covering Kipling's travels in North America and Japan), "Letters to the Family" (covering his travels in India and Egypt), and "Egypt of the Magicians" (covering his travels in Sudan). Kipling's writing is characterized by its sharp wit, keen observation, and wry humor, and Letters of Travel is no exception. Throughout the book, Kipling offers his unique perspective on the people and places he encounters, providing insights into the social and political landscape of the late 19th century.
