Quest for Kim In Search of Kipling's Great Game

"In 'Quest for Kim,' Hopkirk...has written a very personal appreciation of a novel that inspired much of the activity of his own life....Hopkirk, in other words is an old-fashioned man, stirred by the confrontation of Eastern exoticism with Western imperial ambition....For those who have read 'Kim' with pleasure, Hopkirk's literary adventure will make for agreeable, if not especially profound, reading....These tales of intrigue set against the fakir-and-maharajah background of 19th-century India quite obviously continue to delight Hopkirk. And why not? If nothing else, his book is a reminder of just how absorbing was the world that Kipling knew, and how fabulous was his transformation of it into literature." .Hopkirk, Peter is the author of 'Quest for Kim In Search of Kipling's Great Game' with ISBN 9780472086344 and ISBN 0472086340.
