Product Description
Walt Whitman is generally acknowledged to be a true great giant of American literature-often considered to be the father of American poetry. When he was 42 years of age the most profound event of his life occurred...The American Civil War. While some of his Civil War poems are among his most famous, few realize his personal involvement in that war, serving as a battlefield nurse and tending the wounded and the dying in that awful conflict. This program reviews his extraordinary life and presents excerpts from some of his greatest works.
