Description: The Walt Whitman Archive is a comprehensive resource about Whitman's life and work, co-directed by Dr. Ed Folsom and Dr. Kenneth M. Price. Whitman has been one of the most influential writers in American history. Among his works are Leaves of Grass and Memoranda During the War, which describes the poet's experiences while nursing Civil War soldiers. Whitman has become an icon of the gay community. His love poetry, including the famous 'Calamus' section, is remarkably moving and candid.
