Plain Tales from the Hills (published 1888) is the first collection of short stories by Rudyard Kipling.

Many of the 40 stories are set in the Hill Station of Simla—the “summer capital of the British Raj” during the hot weather. Not all of the stories are, in fact, about life in “the Hills”: Kipling gives sketches of many aspects of life in British India.

The stories are:-

“Lispeth”

“Three and – an Extra”

“Thrown Away”

“Miss Youghal’s Sais”

“Yoked with an Unbeliever'”
