About This Item
Iowa City: The Windhover Press, 1969. First edition. 50 pp. Burgundy cloth, lettered in gilt on the front board and spine. No dust jacket, as issued. Spine a bit faded, as usually seen, else fine. One of 280 numbered copies, signed by the author. One of Snyder's most beautiful and austere books; the printer Kim Merker said of it, "Everything about the book is very modest; there's nothing calling attention to me as the doer of it. I just presented the poems as beautifully as I could and let it go at that." McNeil A23. Berger 36.
