Publisher Description: Present day readers live in a world that's emerged from the Cold War and the endless rivalry of the Super Powers but this book goes back and traces the origins of the conflict and mutual antagonism between nations. Kim by Rudyard Kipling is set against the background of the Great Game as it was called the tug-of-war between Britain and Russia for the control of Central Asia. The novel's action takes place during the Anglo-Afghan Wars of 1839-42. The novel's sweeping narrative, the depth of character and the sheer historical scale make it a first rate story. iBoo Classics This and some of other iBoo Classics are collected from the Guardiand's, the Telegraph's and BBC's "the 100 greatest novels of all time" list. iBoo Press House uses state-of-the-art technology to digitally reconstruct the work.
