 Naulakha, Rudyard Kipling's Vermont residence, now an historic Inn
At 90 feet by 24 feet, the house is unusually long and narrow with the author's library and office at the "bow," the kitchen at the "stern." According to David Tansey, an architectural historian and the Landmark Trust's US representative, the author was possibly inspired by elegant Kashmiri houseboats he had known in India.
Indeed, though the jungle boy and the creatures who inhabit The Jungle Books of Rudyard Kipling were conceived in India during the author's childhood, they were given birth half a world away in the thoroughly unexotic setting of a small Vermont village.
If Kipling could return to Naulakha after a century's absence, he would not only find its architecture nearly unchanged, but also its contents would be strikingly familiar.

 The Hudson Review Clara Claiborne Park
In that book Kipling recorded the paradisal Indian childhood, all color and comfort, and the inexplicable abandonment into the chill English hell that to the end of his life he would call the House of Desolation.
In prose and verse Kipling had honored the soldier—even Stalky & Co., easily dismissed as a schoolboy romp, was described by its author as a “tract” on the education of future defenders of empire.
Though Kipling damned the whole “biography and reminiscence business” as “the Higher Cannibalism” (he tried to discourage his old friend Dunsterville, the “Stalky” of Stalky & Co., from starting the Kipling Society—“dam [sic] society,” “unutterably repugnant”), cannibals were not deterred.

 Palmer House, Chicago
Rudyard Kipling, who described Chicago as "inhabited by savages," was equally scornful of this showplace: "They told me to go to the Palmer House, which is a gilded and mirrored rabbit-warren, and there I found a huge hall of tessellated marble, crammed with people talking about money and spitting about everywhere.
The floor of the Palmer House barber shop was tiled with silver dollars, and its service staff consisted largely of members of Chicago's small black community, which comprised a little more than one percent of the population of the city.
The third of the four Palmer Houses (today's Palmer House, also located along Monroe Street between State and Wabash, was built in the twenties) was, with the Grand Pacific and the Sherman House, one of the fanciest hotels in post-fire Chicago.

 Naulakha (Kipling House)
Naulakha, his estate in Dummerston, Vermont, is the only house ever built by Kipling and remains today much as it was when he left it.

Naulakha was finally sold in 1903 to a friend of the Kiplings, Mary Cabot, although it was her sister Grace and brother-in-law Frederick Holbrook who lived at Naulakha.

The Octagonal Methodist Chapel, designed by John Wesley and built in 1764 and rebuilt in 1802, is the oldest surviving chapel still in use (a claim contested by a similar chapel at Yarm), and Rudyard Kipling's grandfather was a minister at the chapel before going out to India.
The 13th century Parish Church of Saint Thomas à Becket, was abandoned after damage caused by a storm in 1847, and a new Parish Church of Saint Thomas the Apostle was built nearby in 1850-1854 – the township thereby having two churches within the one churchyard.
