WALT WHITMAN - GEBRAUCHT LEAVES OF GRASS THE FI...

As Malcolm Cowley says in his introduction  the first edition of Leaves of Grass 'might be
called the buried masterpiece of American writing'  for it exhibits 'Whitman at his best 
Whitman at his freshest in vision and boldest in language  Whitman transformed by a new
experience.' Mr Cowley has taken the first edition from its narrow circulation among scholars 
faithfully edited it  added his own introduction and Whitman's original introduction (which
never appeared in any other edition during Whitman's life)  and returned it to the common
readership to whom the great poet really speaks.
