LINCOLN AND WHITMAN(ISBN=9780345458001) 英文原版 fb2 免费 lrf 下载 kindle azw3 pdf 阿里云

　　Kindred spirits despite their profound differences in

position, Abraham Lincoln and Walt Whitman shared a vision of the

democratic character. They had read or listened to each other’s

words at crucial turning points in their lives, and both were

utterly transformed by the tragedy of the Civil War. In this

radiant book, poet and biographer Daniel Mark Epstein tracks the

parallel lives of these two titans from the day that Lincoln first

read Leaves of Grass to the elegy Whitman composed after Lincoln’s

assassination in 1865.

Drawing on a rich trove of personal and newspaper accounts and

diary records, Epstein shows how the influence and reverence flowed

between these two men–and brings to life the many friends and

contacts they shared. Epstein has written a masterful portrait of

two great American figures and the era they shaped through words

and deeds.
