- Note
- "This single long poem of intimately linked verses is not a translation, although the echoes of Japanese poetry and Tibetan Buddhist texts are many. Starting out after Bashō but meeting Milarepa and Dante among others en route, the poet finds his own way, toward a kind of American mantra"--rear cover.
- "An earlier, unripe version of this book was privately printed under the title of 'Back roads to far towns after Bashō.' A few verses of it appeared in Evergreen Review"--Title page verso.
- Text is holographic reproduction.
- "A New Directions book" -- title page.
- "New Directions Books are published for James Laughlin by New Directions Publishing Corporation" -- title page verso.
