The book consists of four introductory essays, a note on the text, and a transcription of the original draft which had been typed as one long paragraph on sheets of tracing paper which Kerouac then taped together to form a 120-foot scroll. This text is more sexually explicit than that which the publisher allowed to be published in 1957, and also uses the real names of Kerouac's friends rather than the fictional names he substituted for the original publication.
