Complete Prose

Complete Prose Works (1920) by Walt Whitman – D. Appleton Edition
Offered by Crappy Old Books

Step into the freewheeling mind of America’s bard with Complete Prose Works (1920), a sprawling collection of essays, musings, and meditations by Walt Whitman. This D. Appleton edition gathers the poet’s reflections on democracy, war, nature, and the human spirit—raw, ruminative, and occasionally baffling.

Expect less polish and more pulse. Whitman writes like he lived: open-hearted, messy, grandiose, and prone to the occasional cosmic ramble. A must-have for collectors, completists, and anyone curious about the prose behind the poetry.

Condition? It’s seen some miles—like Uncle Walt himself. Scuffs, foxing, and that sweet musty tang of yesteryear. But the words? Still thumping.

Another barely-sellable gem from Crappy Old Books.

Very nice untrimmed page edges to side and bottom. Trimmed to top.
