DESCRIPTION: The Water Margin is one of the "Four Great Classical Novels of Chinese Literature." Based upon the historical bandit Song Jiang and his companions, this Chinese equivalent of the English classic "Robin Hood and His Merry Men" is an epic tale of rebellion against tyranny and has been thrilling and inspiring readers for hundreds of years. This edition of the classic J. H. Jackson translation features a new preface and introduction by Edwin Lowe, which gives the history of the book and puts the story into perspective for modern readers. While Chinese in origin, the themes of the novel are universal enough that it has served as a source of inspiration for numerous movies, television shows and video games up to the present day.
