Good-Bye My Fancy is an 1891 collection of poetry by Walt Whitman, intended to be a companion to his work Leaves of Grass. Walt Whitman (1819 - 1892) was an American essayist, poet, and journalist who was pivotal to the transition from transcendentalism to realism. His work was notably divisive and claimed by many to be obscene when first published, but he is now considered to be one of the most influential people in the American poetic canon and the father of free verse. Contents include: Sail Out for Good, Eidólon Yacht!, Lingering Last Drops, Good-Bye My Fancy, On, On The Same, Ye Jocund Twain!, My 71st Year, Apparitions, The Pallid Wreath, An Ended Day, Old Age's Ship & Crafting Death's, To The Pending Year, Shakespeare-Bacon's Cipher, Long, Long Hence, Bravo, Paris Exposition!, Interpolation Sounds, etc. Other notable works by this author include: Franklin Evans (1842), Life and Adventures of Jack Engle (1852), and Leaves of Grass (1855). Many vintage books such as this are becoming increasingly scarce and expensive. We are republishing this volume now in an affordable, modern, high-quality edition complete with a specially commissioned new biography of the author.
