He walked the wards so the dying would not be alone. During the Civil War, Walt Whitman spent years at the bedsides of wounded soldiers in the army hospitals of Washington, writing letters home for them, bringing small gifts, and setting down what he saw. This gathering of his hospital letters and poems is tender, unflinching, and quietly shattering. You will discover the great American poet at his most human, keeping watch by lamplight. Compassion under the worst conditions. Press play and sit with him.
