Watts, Alan. Vintage Books, 1951. Softbound. Cover design by Bob Korn. An influential proto-mindfulness title from early in Watts's career. The self-proclaimed 'philosophical entertainer' spent much of his life in a cabin at Druid Heights, the Marin County bohemian community founded by poet Elsa Gidlow with Isabel Quallo and Roger Somers. After a period of heavy drinking, Watts died mysteriously there in 1973 at the age of 58, his body quickly whisked away and cremated by Buddhist monks on a wooden pyre at nearby Muir Beach.

Spine is tight, but has some cosmetic creasing and lean. Clean, unmarked interior. Some gently bumped corners and toning to the pages. 152 pp. Featured Rare & Collectible.
