I have now, courtesy of wiki, found out that although he wrote few novels, he did write other stuff, essays some poems and so on. I also note that v late in life, he owned up to having been in the Waffen-SS.

How much can anyone get through? Kipling wrote over 1000 poems-- maybe the best is not 'If..' but something long-forgotten? Hum.

some of his ballads are superb
