Description
From back cover: This volume contains five travel sketches written, in later life by Matsuo Basho (1644-94), the greatest of the Japanese haiku poets. Basho's genius had already given new freedom and energy to the strict haiku form of seventeen syllables, elevating it to a level of miniature perfection.
