The translation work to create this English edition was a voluntary endeavor of nearly three hundred members of the Urasenke International Association (UIA), as a project commemorating the 25th anniversary of the association in 2011. Previously, for the association's 20th anniversary, the association members produced the translations for the successful book, A Chanoyu Vocabulary: Practical Terms for the Way of Tea (Tankosha: October 2007; 2nd printing, December 2008).
