Publisher Description

'The Story of the Gadsbys' is a story by Rudyard Kipling and it was first printed in India in 1888. This is a short book written as a play. It pursues the young captain who is getting married, and each scene represents the different stages of the marriage. This book is written almost entirely in dialogue form. It shows a collection of eight very short stories written in melodramatic form and entitled: 'Poor Dear Mamma', 'The World Without', 'The Tents of Kedar', 'With any Amazement', 'The Garden of Eden', 'Fatima', 'The Valley of the Shadow', 'The Swelling of Jordan'. The most important characters of these short dramatic scenes are Captain Vasant and Miss D., along with the setting and the events described in these scenes are modern one, that are much closer to a comedy of manners. Though the plots of these scenes are not clear and consistent and the main theme dealt with this is related to family relations, manners and social classes. First printed in the Indian Railway Library as no. 2. These eight stories are in dramatic form with a final poem in four verses.
