Widely considered the greatest American poet, Walt Whitman was initially deemed by the literary establishment an egomaniac, a charlatan, and a poet whose verse lacked any sense of rhyme or meter. James Thomson’s engaging study of the author of Leaves of Grass is a vigorous defense of the poet, whom he admired and held in the same high regard as Shelley.
