In 1929, when author Dwight Goddard wrote The Buddha’s Golden Path, he was breaking ground. No American before him had lived the life of a Zen Buddhist monk, and then set out to share what he had learned with his countrymen. The Buddha’s Golden Path is a true classic. It has touched countless lives, and opened the door for future generations in this country to study and embrace the principles of Zen.
" . . . anyone wishing to learn more about the place that Buddhism could have in American life, whether in Goddard's interwar America or today's anxious post-9/11 world, should read this book."
