Tuotetiedot

Leaves of Grass by American poet Walt Whitman was first published in 1855. The work was an attempt at reaching out to the common person with an American epic (a lengthy narrative poem.) He continued expanding and revising it until his death in 1892. The work started as a collection of 12 unnamed poems.

Leaves of Grass even became banned in various locations, which only led to increased sales, with some printings
