Korean Tales
Allen (1858-1932) was an American doctor who was the first Protestant missionary in Korea, arriving in late 1884.

Due to disagreements with the US government over its lack of intervention in the Russo-Japanese War he was recalled in 1905. This collection of stories translated from Korean folk lore was first published in 1889.
