I thought I had 'The Way of Zen' but a quick scan didn't find it. However 
my books aren't very organized. D.T. Suzuki was one of the other popular 
authors. It could get strange around the edges with Christmas Humphrey's 
influence,

I did find Burtt's 'The Teachings of the Compassionate Buddha', which was 
another source in the '50s. The depressing part is the price on the cover 
-- 60 cents.
