O knihe

Prose by Walt Whitman, book design by Lawrence Jay Switzer. This volume of the Walt Whitman Series is a collection of selected prose from the pen of the celebrated American poet, Walt Whitman. Part travel book, part tribute to nature, and part a survey of the literary luminaries who shared the poetic landscape of the 19th Century with him (Poe, Longfellow, Whittier, Emerson, etc.), the book covers many topics and persons, not the least of these is the towering figure of Abraham Lincoln, hovering in the background of the poet's consciousness. Written later in life, after his partial recovery from a stroke which left him half paralyzed, the selections leave the impression of a man peacefully approaching the end of his life whose greatest wish is to share the last drop of his poetic vision with his fellow Americans. Illustrated with period engravings and photos.
