The Immortal Faith in Northern China

Salt takes us on a journey through the worship of the Wǔdàxiān in Northern China: the Fox, Weasel, Serpent, Hedgehog, and Rat Immortals of the Chumaxian tradition. Covering the history, cultural roots and influences, and trance possession rites of this rich current, Salt shares his love of the Five Great Immortals in a deeply evocative exploration into what it means to "catch the incense" of their patronage.
