"If—" is a poem by British Nobel laureate Rudyard Kipling, written in 1895 and first published in "Rewards and Fairies", 1910.
 It is a tribute to Leander Starr Jameson.
 The poem is written in the form of paternal advice to the poet's son, John.
 As poetry, "If—" is a literary example of Victorian-era stoicism.
"The Last of the Light Brigade" is a poem written in 1890 by Rudyard Kipling echoing – thirty-six years after the event – Alfred Tennyson's famous poem "The Charge of the Light Brigade".
 Employing synecdoche, Kipling uses his poem to expose the terrible hardship faced in old age by veterans of the Crimean War, as exemplified by the cavalry men of the light brigade who charged at the Battle of Balaclava.
 It describes a visit by the last twenty survivors of the charge to Tennyson (then in his eightieth year) to reproach him gently for not writing a sequel about the way in which England was treating its old soldiers.
 Some sources treat the poem as an account of a real event, but other commentators class the destitute old soldiers as allegorical, with the visit invented by Kipling to draw attention to the poverty in which the real survivors were living, in the same way that he evoked Tommy Atkins in "The Absent Minded Beggar".

"His Chance in Life" is a short story by Rudyard Kipling.
 It was first published in the first Indian edition of "Plain Tales from the Hills" (1888), and in subsequent editions of that collection.
 The story is illuminating about Kipling's attitudes to race, which are less cut-and-dried than is often thought.
 Kipling is interesting, if not very detailed, on people of mixed race and the snobberies involved.
 (For some detail, see the Kipling Society notes.)
"The Ballad of East and West" is a poem by Rudyard Kipling.
 It was first published in 1889, and has been much collected and anthologised since.
 Its first line is often quoted, sometimes to ascribe racism to Kipling, particularly in regard to the British Empire.
 Those who quote it thus often completely miss the third and fourth lines.
 The full refrain, with which the poem opens and closes, includes a contradiction of the opening line:
Sir Ronald Ross (13 May 1857 – 16 September 1932), was a British medical doctor who received the Nobel Prize for Physiology or Medicine in 1902 for his work on the transmission of malaria, becoming the first British Nobel laureate, and the first born outside Europe.
 His discovery of the malarial parasite in the gastrointestinal tract of a mosquito proved that malaria was transmitted by mosquitoes, and laid the foundation for the method of combating the disease.
 He was a polymath, writing a number of poems, published several novels, and composed songs.
 He was also an amateur artist and natural mathematician.
 He worked in the Indian Medical Service for 25 years.
 It was during his service that he made the groundbreaking medical discovery.
 After resigning from his service in India, he joined the faculty of Liverpool School of Tropical Medicine, and continued as Professor and Chairman of Tropical Medicine of the institute for 10 years.
 In 1926 he became Director-in-Chief of the Ross Institute and Hospital for Tropical Diseases, which was established in honour of his works.
 He remained there until his death.
"A Death-Bed" is a poem by English poet and writer Rudyard Kipling (1865-1936).
 It was first published in April 1919, in the collection "The Years Between".
 Later publications identified the year of writing as 1918.
 Kipling's only son, John, had been reported missing in action in 1915, during the Battle of Loos.
 Kipling was grief-stricken.
 "A Death-Bed" has been described as "the most savage poem Kipling ever wrote", and as "overtly distasteful".
Stalky & Co. is a novel by Rudyard Kipling about adolescent boys at a British boarding school.
 It is a collection of school stories whose juvenile protagonists display a know-it-all, cynical outlook on patriotism and authority.
 According to his family, Kipling enjoyed reading aloud stories from "Stalky & Co." to them and often went into spasms of laughter over his own jokes.
 It was first published in 1899 (following serialisation in the "Windsor Magazine").
 Reflecting its origins, the novel is episodic in nature, with self-contained chapters.
 It is set at an unnamed school referred to as "the College" or "the Coll."
, which is based on the United Services College in Devon, which Kipling attended.
 The character Beetle, one of the main trio, is partly based on Kipling himself, while the charismatic character Stalky is based on Lionel Dunsterville, M'Turk is based on George Charles Beresford, Mr King is based on William Carr Crofts, and the school Head, Mr. Bates, is based on Cormell Price.
Snarleyow is a poem by Rudyard Kipling, published in late 1890.
 The title character was a horse that was part of a team pulling a gun.
 The poem is one of many Kipling wrote depicting the life of soldiers in the British army.
 It appears that this one is based on an incident in the life of Staff Sergeant Nathaniel W. Bancroft, of the old Bengal Horse Artillery and later the Royal Horse Artillery.
 The poem was one of the many Kipling poems set to song by G. F. Cobb.

 The first part is an essay by American-born British poet T. S. Eliot (1888-1965), in which he discusses the nature and stature of British poet Rudyard Kipling (1865-1936); it is divided into two sections.
 The second part consists of a selection of Kipling's poems made by Eliot.
