Beschreibung:
Frances Carpenter (1890-1972) had a love of foreign lands and cultures, which she observed closely during her extensive travels—first with her journalist and author father and later with her diplomat husband. During her lifetime she traveled more than 100,000 miles across a number of continents. She was a fellow for the Royal Geographical Society, Vice President of the International Society of Woman Geographers, and president of the Smith College Alumnae Association.
The Korean people possess a folklore tradition as colorful and captivating as any in the world, and yet the stories themselves are not as widely known to Western readers. Here, Carpenter collects 32 classic Korean children's stories which are rooted in thousands of years of Korean culture. Illustrations.
