Startling discoveries and massive transcription efforts are enabling new insights into his life and achievements. In the past few years new breakthroughs have proliferated, including the publication of a long-lost Whitman novel, \u003cem\u003eJack Engle\u003c\/em\u003e, along with a hitherto unknown health guide for urban men and previously undiscovered poems. Myriad other documents have become more readily available, including largely unmined troves of journalism, narrative and documentary prose, and experimental note-keeping. \u003cem\u003eLeaves of Grass\u003c\/em\u003e and Whitman's literary life as a whole are thus ripe for reconsideration. \u003cem\u003eThe Oxford Handbook of Walt Whitman\u003c\/em\u003e embraces this expanded view of Whitman and charts new pathways in Whitman Studies by bringing in new perspectives, methods, and contexts.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAbout the Author\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003eKenneth M.
