Noted American poet Walt Whitman has created a masterpiece. Whitman loves writing about material things and the human mind and body. Whitman shows a true love of nature and man's role in it. One of the best known poems in the work is "When Lilacs Last in the Dooryard Bloom'd", which is a beautiful poem written about the assassination of President Lincoln.When Whitman wrote his "Democratic Vistas," the long embittered war between the Northern and Southern States of America was a thing only of yesterday. It is a headlong amorphous production--a tangled meadow of "leaves of grass" in prose. But it is as cogent to-day as it was when it was written:To the ostent of the senses and eyes [he writes], the influences which stamp the world's history are wars, uprisings, or downfalls of dynasties.... These, of course, play their part; yet, it may be, a single new thought, imagination, abstract principle ... put in shape by some great literatus, and projected among mankind, may duly cause changes, growths, removals, greater than the longest and bloodiest war, or the most stupendous merely political, dynastic, or commercial overturn.

Walt Whitman worked as a nurse in an army hospital during the Civil War and published Drum-Taps, his war poems, as the war was coming to an end. Later, the book came out in an expanded form, including “When Lilacs Last in the Dooryard Bloom'd,” Whitman's passionate elegy for Lincoln. The most moving and enduring poetry to emerge from America’s most tragic conflict, Drum-Taps also helped to create a new, modern poetry of war, a poetry not just of patriotic exhortation but of somber witness. Drum-Taps is thus a central work not only of the Civil War but of our war-torn times. But Drum-Taps as readers know it from Leaves of Grass is different from the work of 1865. Whitman cut and reorganized the book, reducing its breadth of feeling and raw immediacy. This edition, the first to present the book in its original form since its initial publication 150 years ago, is a revelation, allowing one of Whitman’s greatest achievements to appear again in all its troubling glory.

Drum-Taps, is a collection of poetry written by American poet Walt Whitman during the American Civil War, published in 1865. Eighteen more poems were added later in the year to make Sequel to Drum-Taps. In the first group of poems, Whitman shows both eagerness and doubts in regard to the close conflict. These poems also reveal Whitman's trust that this war is a good thing for American ideals. It is the complete Civil War poem collection, including the celebrated, "Oh, Captain, My Captain!" and expanded with Whitman's essays from the period on subjects such as Secession, Abraham Lincoln, working in the Civil War hospitals, and the murder of the president. Whitman begins in a glorious mode. These victorious poems seem to reflect an excitement in the nation as a whole that evil would be defeat by good. Drum-Taps perhaps comes closest to naming the concern that Whitman feels for his country and for his society. It included poems that bother witness to the violence of war with a sense of closeness and fear. The mood of the poetry moves for enthusiasm at the falling-in and equipping of the young soldiers at the beginning of the war to the disturbed recognition of the war's true importance.
