Joseph Rudyard Kipling was an English short-story writer, poet, and novelist. Не was one of the most popular writers in England, in both prose and verse, in the late 19th and early 20th centuries. George Orwell called him a "prophet of British imperialism". He wrote tales and poems of British soldiers in India and stories for children, and he also was the first to use Cockney dialect in serious poetry.
“False Dawn” is a short story, which was first published in the first Indian edition of “Plain Tales from the Hills” in 1888, and in subsequent editions of that collection. The story is set on an unnamed 'station', or one of the posts where the British lived during the Raj. The book was a major hit at the turn of the century! It is definitely worth a delve into for everyone who adores Kipling's art!
