'The Story of the Gadsbys' is a story by Rudyard Kipling and it was first printed in India in 1888. This is a short book written as a play. It pursues the young captain who is getting married, and each scene represents the different stages of the marriage. This book is written almost entirely in dialogue form. It shows a collection of eight very short stories written in melodramatic form and entitled: 'Poor Dear Mamma', 'The World Without', 'The Tents of Kedar', 'With any Amazement', 'The Garden of Eden', 'Fatima', 'The Valley of the Shadow', 'The Swelling of Jordan'. The most important characters of these short dramatic scenes are Captain Vasant and Miss D., along with the setting and the events described in these scenes are modern one, that are much closer to a comedy of manners. Though the plots of these scenes are not clear and consistent and the main theme dealt with this is related to family relations, manners and social classes. First printed in the Indian Railway Library as no. 2. These eight stories are in dramatic form with a final poem in four verses.

Joseph Rudyard Kipling was an English artist, brief tale essayist, and author, primarily associated with his works for young children and supporting the British government.

Like most other British youngsters in India, they enjoyed most of the day with Indian babysitters and workers, paying attention to the extraordinary stories they told in their local tongue and exploring neighbourhood markets with them. Subsequently, Rudyard turned out to be more fluent in their language than in English. However, every one of these changed unexpectedly in 1871, when both the siblings were sent to homes in England to be instructed under the British framework. Showing up in England in October, they set up with Captain Pryse Agar Holloway and his significant other Sarah, who boarded offspring of British nationals serving in India in their home at Southsea, Portsmouth.
