notes Bahá'í Faith: pp. 18, 40, 44: On dust jacket: "American Journal collects most of Robert Hayden's work since his Angle of Ascent (1975). First published in 1978 in an Effendi Press limited edition [100 hardbound, 1000 paperback] and nominated for the National Book Award at that time, this edition includes ten new poems." Reference to Bahá'u'lláh in the poem "The Prisoners" on page 18 is not explicit: "We shared reprieving Hidden Words revealed by the Godlike imprisoned One, whose crime was truth." The poem "As my blood was drawn" on page 40 mentions "the People of Bahá [who] were savaged were slain..." In "The Year of the Child" on page 43-44 he speaks of "The Most Great Beauty."
