Gunga Din and Other Favorite Poems by Rudyard Kipling

Heat stress is the number one killer in Australia. In a normal year, about 24 Australians are killed by extreme heat, but specific events have killed hundreds in a matter of days over the past five years. Based on international protocols, Extreme Heat Survival, Australia, focuses on what people can do before, during and after a heat wave to protect themselves and their property. Also included in each guide are smartphone QR codes that link to the websites of various emergency services agencies. Laminated for durability, this portable guide is an ideal source of quick and accurate information.

Nobel Laureate Rudyard Kipling (1865 1936) is best remembered for children's tales such as The Jungle Book as well as his poetry and stories about British soldiers in India, which include Gunga Din and The Man Who Would Be King. Kipling was enormously popular at the turn of the 20th century but his reputation declined with the change in attitude toward British imperialism. In recent years Kipling's works have found new acclaim as a vibrant source of literary and cultural history.
