Walt Whitman's Western Jaunt

In 1879 Walt Whitman made a trip to the West to Kansas. From his own research, as well as from Whitman’s published daybooks and notebooks and his collected correspondence, Walter Eitner is able to piece together a detailed itinerary, and to compare the record of the actual journey with Whitman’s own account.

In 1879, Walt Whitman a facut o calatorie in vest, in Kansas. Din propriile sale cercetari, precum si din agendele si caietele publicate de Whitman si din corespondenta sa colectata, Walter Eitner este capabil sa alcatuiasca un itinerar detaliat si sa compare inregistrarea calatoriei reale cu propria relatare a lui Whitman.
