The tales collected here are of famous characters in Chinese history and myth: a hero's battle with the lords of evil, the treacherous betrayal of his friends by athe Ming dynasty ruler, a young girl who saves her town by imitating rooster calls. The Taoist immortals are role models of spiritual attainment in Chinese culture. Some were aristocrats, and some were entrepreneurs. Their names are household words in China and their stories are told and retold from generation to generation. This is an engrossing set of tales that can be read for inspiration and enjoyment.
