The poetry of Walt Whitman is the cornerstone of modern American verse. He was America's first truly great poet and his influence is still evident today. The first edition of Whitman's "Leaves of Grass," published in 1855, was a revolutionary manifesto declaring America's independence from European cultural domination. His rhapsodic free verse broke radically with poetic, tradition: it was poetry about America, its democracy, its people, and its hopes. It was uniquely American without apology--brash, proud, optimistic, and filled with the bustling energy of the new and growing nation.This collection brings together Whitman's greatest and most famous poems spanning the whole of his career. From the groundbreaking first edition of "Leaves of Grass" are seven poems, including "Song of Myself" and "I Sing the Body Electric."From later editions there are such masterpieces as "Crossing Brooklyn Ferry," "Out of the Cradle Endlessly Rocking," and "I Hear America Singing." Also included is Whitman's great cycle of Civil War Poems, "Drum-Taps," which he wrote in the months when he was ministering to the wounded in battlefield hospitals. Concluding this collection is one of his last poems, "Good-bye My Fancy "--his touching farewell to his muse, his life, and his readers.More than one hundred years after his death, Walt Whitman's poetry has become part of the American heritage. It is a visionary which speaks as aptly to readers today as it will to future generations. As he says in "Crossing Brooklyn Ferry," "others...look back on me because I look'd forward to them." Whitman's poetry is a link that connects all Americans--past, present, and future.This book features a deluxe cover, ribbon marker, top stain, and decorative endpaper with a nameplate.

Fifty Shades of Grass - Giving love a sporting chance.Christina is trying to use Dave's love of sport to get him into bed, but of course he has no clue and is just "stoked" he's found a girl who adores talking about bouncers, behinds, and superb ball handling as much as he does.Fifty Shades of Blokes is a series for us guys who just don't get all the fuss about this Fifty Shades malarkey.When handyman, Dave Woode, does some weekend work for young entrepreneur, Christina Grey, he encounters a woman who is beautiful, brilliant, and desperate to try out a 'bit of rough'. The unworldly, innocent Dave - like almost every man before him - has no idea what's going on, and believes Christina simply shares his passions for sports, DIY and gardening. The series follows the young couple as they embark on a passionate, double-entendre filled exploration of balls, power tools and spreading a bit of seed around.With every story written the way men would like it - incredibly short - the Fifty Shades of Blokes trilogy won't 'possess you' or 'obsess you', but it is quite obviously a parody that will leave you asking: - How do men and women ever get together?- How many men are really as simple as Dave?- What does it say about our sex lives when 'the real books' sell a million copies a week? N.B. This series is intended for immature audiences.

A volume of short stories with a wide range of themes. In Stirring The Grass, Rick Griffin's Muslim girlfriend, Sara Awad, is reported as missing. This opens up a whole can of worms involving international espionage with all its attendant deceit and duplicity, and propels those closest to her on a roller coaster of emotional turmoil... In Man Flu, something strange starts claiming the lives of birds in the West Hill dominion. There are no external wounds, no signs of struggle, no readily obvious cause of death. The inner circle, under the presidency of a charismatic robin, decides that humans are responsible. The word goes out that all contact with humans is forbidden and, most significantly, bird feeders are declared off-limits. The penalty for breaking the embargo is severe...Also included: Fish Figments, Shackleton's Shed, Why Thursdays?, David Attenborough III and a couple of short pieces of prose.
