About this audiobook

Embark on a stirring adventure with Kipling's "Barrack-Room Ballads." In this collection of poems, you'll meet the boisterous Tommy Atkins, the quintessential British soldier. Hear his tales of life on the march, in the barracks, and on the battlefield, all rendered in Kipling's vivid verse and laced with the salty dialect of the common soldier. From the heroism of "Gunga Din" to the haunting melody of "Mandalay," these poems capture the camaraderie, courage, and resilience of those who serve the crown. So, pull up a stool by the campfire and prepare to be transported to a world of duty, valor, and a touch of rebellion. "Barrack-Room Ballads" awaits!
