Emory Holloway's Final Word on Whitman's Son

Abstract

Uses Pulitzer Prize- winning Whitman scholar Emory Holloway's correspondence with Verne Dyson to determine Holloway's response to the refutation of his claim that Whitman had fathered a son, a claim Holloway made in his late and ill-fated study, Free and Lonesome Heart: The Secret of Walt Whitman.
