The first of five programmes.
Rudyard Kipling first travelled from India to England at the age of 5; he circumnavigated the world in his early 20s and remained an enthusiastic traveller all his life. Every place Kipling visited and every person he met could fire his imagination and reappear later in story or verse.
Marghanita Laski follows his travels and explores that world which Kipling brought to life in his writings. 1: Europe
