Contains poems and essays from over 100 contributors, a gallery of photographs of Whitman, and an extensive bibliography of poems, essays, parodies, lectures, recollections, and remarks in response to Whitman. The collection conveys a clear sense that Walt Whitman's artistry and vision have retained their usefulness and power for writers and readers today, and that Whitman's hopes continue to be realized for 'poets to come' and alert audiences 'ages hence.'--Back cover.
