New York, NY: George H. Doran, 1927. First Edition, First Thus . Hardcover. Very Good/No Jacket. Theodore Nadejen (Illustrator). Text/VG; strong & sound w/light soiling through page 38.. Gilt embossed burnt-orange linen boards/VG; edge rubs, soiling & showing faint discoloration. Illustrated endpapers; fraying to front/rear hinges. Oral literature. Story of Tibeto-Mongolian, pre-Bhuddhist mythical hero who was chosen by the gods to descend to earth in human form to combat evil.

Following the format of "storytellers' prompt books", each chapter is preceded with an introductory poem encapsulating essential points.
