A truly significant discovery, Walt Whitman’s Manly Health and Training is an entertaining health manifesto that sheds new light on one of America’s major nineteenth-century authors. In the fall of 1858, a thirteen-part essay series appeared in the New York Atlas, under the title Manly Health and Training.

Los libros nos recuerdan, serenos y siempre dispuestos a desplegarse ante nuestros ojos, que la salud de las palabras enraíza en las editoriales, en las librerías, en los círculos de lecturas compartidas, en las bibliotecas, en las escuelas.
