Book synopsis

In discussing letter-writing, Whitman made his own views clear. Simplicity and naturalness were his guidelines. "I like my letters to be personal - very personal - and then stop." This collection of nearly 3,000 letters written over a half century reveals Whitman the man as no other documents can. Volume I includes the poet's correspondence from Washington, DC, during the Civil War, where he nursed wounded and dying soldiers.
