Republished to coincide with the new ITV film, My Boy Jack?
starring Daniel Radcliffe, this is the full account of the tragic
life of John 'Jack" Kipling. On 27th September 1915 John Kipling,
the only son of Britain's best loved poet, disappeared during the
Battle of Loos. The body lay undiscovered for 77 years. Then, in a
most unusual move, the Commonwealth War Graves Commission
(CWGC)re-marked the grave of an unknown Lieutenant of the Irish
Guards, as that of John Kipling. There is considerable evidence
that John's grave has been wrongly identified and for the first
time in this book, the authors name the soldier they believe is
buried in 'John's grave'. This is the first biography of John's
short life, analysing the devastating effect it had on his famous
father's work.
