Limits and Renewals is a collection of short stories almost all of which were previously published in periodicals. “The Tie”, “Aunt Ellen” and “Unconventional Mercies” were first published here. The other fifteen tales include “The Debt”, “Dayspring Mishandled”, “A Naval Mutiny”, “Akbar's Bridge” and “Fairy-Kist”. Many of these tales are directly inspired by Kipling's childhood in India and his subsequent return in his early twenties. The most famous piece in this collection is 'Dayspring Mishandled', acknowledged to be one of Kipling's finest tales.
