Argus Books. Chicago. 1955. First Edition. Cloth in Dust Wrapper. Decorated front cover. Illustrated dust wrapper, slight chipping to spine bottom and bottom edge. 374 pages. From the dust wrapper: "Walt Whitman's Secret tells the life of the great American poet from the time of his first New Orleans visit until shortly after the close of the Civil War. Ben Aronin's story, remarkable for its vivid portrayal of the happenings and intellectual climate of the times, is nevertheless, biographical fiction". "..Aronin has touched those riotous, turbulent decades with a magic pen. Everson, Thoreau, Foster, Melville, and scores of other famed personalities come to vibrant life in this magnificently written story".
