Odd coincidence: I was explaining the 'Kipling swastika' to a patron just this morning.

Damn that Kipling post is nice. Thanks, brundlefly; looks like a cool little blog.
And yes, I have three Kipling swastika spines in the next room next to this one, and a couple of other early 20th-c swastika book appearances. When I die one of my Jewish relatives is going to raise an eyebrow or two.

Ah, growabrain, that explains the excellence here. It's so much fun to watch a sharp mind wander intelligently over the web.

Worthy post. I've been casually following Ray's output for a while and have always meant to look deeper into the long list in his blogger profile.
