The title refers, by way of a pun on "Plain" as the reverse of "Hills", to the deceptively simple narrative style; and to the fact that many of the stories are set in the Hill Station of Simla—the "summer capital of the British Raj" during the hot weather. The tales include the first appearances, in book form, of Mrs. Hauksbee, the policeman Strickland, and the Soldiers Three (Privates Mulvaney, Ortheris and Learoyd).Rudyard Kipling (1865-1936) was an English short-story writer, poet, and novelist. He wrote tales and poems of British soldiers in India and stories for children. He is regarded as a major innovator in the art of the short story; his children''s books are classics of children''s literature; and one critic described his work as exhibiting "a versatile and luminous narrative gift".Contents:LispethThree and—an ExtraThrown AwayMiss Youghal''s Sais''Yoked with an Unbeliever''False DawnThe Rescue of PlufflesCupid''s ArrowsThe Three MusketeersHis Chance in LifeWatches of the NightThe Other ManConsequencesThe Conversion of Aurelian McGogginThe Taking of LungtungpenA Germ-DestroyerKidnappedThe Arrest of Lieutenant GolightlyIn the House of SuddhooHis Wedded WifeThe Broken Link HandicapBeyond the PaleIn ErrorA Bank FraudTods'' AmendmentThe Daughter of the RegimentIn the Pride of His YouthPigThe Rout of the White HussarsThe Bronckhorst Divorce-CaseVenus AnnodominiThe Bisara of PooreeA Friend''s FriendThe Gate of the Hundred SorrowsThe Madness of Private OrtherisThe Story of Muhammad DinOn the Strength of a LikenessWressley of the Foreign Office...
