Condition: Near Fine. dj. Inscribed later printing with an original watercolor by Yashima, this illustrated collection of Korean folk tales "changed, elaborated, and combined" these stories for an American audience. This book of retellings of Korean folk tales was, in part, an effort to familiarize America with their Korean allies as the fight against Communism wore on in the Cold War. Newbery Medal-winning author Jewett was primarily known for her interpretations of Arthurian tales, and she turned her pen to the stories of the Korean people "with whom we have made common cause now for so long."
