The Complete Walt Whitman

Walt Whitman changed what American poetry could sound like. This collection gathers his complete major work: Leaves of Grass, the sprawling, free-verse celebration of democracy, the body, and the self that Whitman revised and expanded for the rest of his life; Drum-Taps, his raw, immediate poems of the Civil War; The Wound Dresser, drawn from his letters and journals as a volunteer nurse tending wounded soldiers; and his Complete Prose Works alongside further patriotic verse. Together they trace Whitman's journey from unrestrained lyric optimism to the hard-won, compassionate realism of a man who had watched a nation tear itself apart and helped nurse it back together. This Chronicle Vault edition presents his complete works, unabridged, in a clean, fully reflowable format for all e-readers.
