Explore an ancient Korean legend brought vividly to life in The Archer and His Son. Retold by Kenneth Gardiner and illustrated by Caroline Jay, this 1974 edition recounts the myth of the Sun Prince who descended from heaven, married the daughter of a River God, and fathered the great archer Chu-mong—the founder of the kingdom of Koguryo (Korea)—and his son Yuri. 

Richly illustrated and cultural in scope, this children’s story-book offers both an exciting adventure and a window into Korean mythic heritage. Originally published by Blackie & Son in Glasgow & London.
