Carpenter Edward. Days With Walt Whitman. With Some Notes On His Life and Work

London: George Allen & Unwin Ltd., 1906. — 204 p.My first acquaintance with Whitman’s writings (William Rossetti’s edition of the Poems) was made at Cambridge during the Long Vacation in the summer of 1868 — or it may have been’69. But it was not till 1877 that I crossed the Atlantic and paid my first visit to him. In 1884 I was again in the States, and saw Whitman several times. The notes made on the occasions of these visits were written out at a later period, and finallу published in the Progressive Review (February and April 1897) in the same form as they now stand. The other papers in the present book belong to a still later date, and, with one exception, have not been published before.A Visit to Walt Whitman in 1877
