ESSENTIAL FOR THE WHITMAN SCHOLAR AND SCHOOL LIBRARIES,
By
This review is from: Walt Whitman: An Encyclopedia (Garland Reference Library of the Humanities) (Hardcover)
An expensive book but worth every penny. This is not an ordinary encyclopedia written by an in-house staff. The essays are all written by serious Whitman scholars, and they are a pleasure to read--not just sources of information. After you get copies of Kummings' and Giantvalley's bibliographies, this is the book you need. My copy is almost worn out--both by me (I am writing a book on Whitman) and by my students (they are always searching for paper topics). Simply a must for Whitman scholars (and, probably, many scholars of the 19th-century US) and any library that seeks to support work on American literature and culture.
