UTED BY
· Seer, prophet, visionary, preacher, Walt Whitman stands out
as one of poetry's towering anomalies: in celebrating the trees,
water, sky and air, the bear, the eagle, the buffalo and the lion,
Whitman expressed a uniquely democratic vision that engulfs
not only the American continent but the entire universe. His
passionate vehemence, his faith in the common man, and
his unflinching pursuit of the truth gave form to an arsenal of
ideas, inspiring and motivating generations of writers to come.
The collection includes: I Hear America Singing, Starting from
Paumanok, I Sing the Body Electric, Crossing Brooklyn Ferry,
Beat! Beat! Drums!, Out of the Cradle Endlessly Rocking and A
Noiseless Patient Spider. Also includes a free download of When
Lilacs Last in the Dooryard Bloom'd.
