Soldiers Three

Meer over het boek

Focusing on the lives of three soldiers—an Irishman, a Yorkshireman, and a Londoner—this collection reveals the realities of military life in Afghanistan during a pivotal time in British history. Through their experiences, Kipling explores the complexities of British influence and the perspectives of native Indians, offering a unique lens often overlooked in his other works. The narrative includes a melodramatic story titled "Gadsby," divided into eight scenes, further enriching the historical and fictional tapestry of the soldiers' tales.
