Billy Fish: "He wants to know if you are gods." Peachy Carnehan: "Not gods - Englishmen. The next best thing." Rudyard Kipling's 1888 novella "The Man Who Would Be King" is an under-rated gem. The powerful story of lost treasure, love and human weakness was adapted into a Best Picture nominated movie in 1976 but has largely been overlooked by today's generation. Enhanced Ebooks presents Kipling's classic adventure tale with a newly revised text and the original essay 'Who Was Rudyard Kipling?'
