Hoofbeats Song of You-A Poetic History of the United States Book

Soothill's translation of the White Lotus Sutra is rendered in a straightforward style. Unfortunately it is incomplete and contains intrusive interpolations by the translator. The paperback edition was apparently first published in the UK in 1987 but the style reads as if it was translated in the first half of the 20th century by a scholar researching the 'Far East'. Nevertheless it remains a readable introduction to a major Buddhist text.
