David McKay, 1891-92. Hardcover. Fine. An excellent copy of the 1892 first, best and complete edition of "Leaves of Grass" was described by Whitman as "by far his special and entire self-chosen poetic utterance." [NY Herald] Referred to as the 'Deathbed edition', it was published just two months prior to Whitman's death. From an initial publication of 12 poems, 35-40 years and 4-8 expanded publications of his poetry, this book is the capstone with nearly 400 poems spanning every aspect of his life. Upon its publication, Walt Whitman wished "respectfully to notify the public that… 'Leaves of Grass'… is now completed… and he would like this new 1892 edition to absolutely supersede all previous ones…" [NY Herald] This edition carries the word 'complete' on the spine of the book further identifying the publication. very fine copy of the 1892 best and complete edition of "Leaves of Grass" was described by Whitman as "by far his special and entire self-chosen poetic utterance."
