Small 4to., brick red cloth gilt to spine; yellow endpapers; original publisher's grey, red, white and black dustwrapper ($10.95); pp. [x], 11-111, [i]; a fine copy in near-fine jacket which has one light crease to upper edge and very light shelf wear to the lower panel.

First edition. The final volume in the pocket poet series, which was published by Lawrence Ferlinghetti and the first volume of which had appeared in 1955. A photograph to p. [x] shows Ginsberg with his partner Orlovsky and friends of Rocky Flats truth force meditating on R.R. train tracks outside of Rockwell Corporation's Nuclear Facility's Plutonium bomb trigger factory in Colorado. The protest halted a trainload of waste fissile materials on the day that the title poem was completed, July 14th 1978.
