Perry Whitman biography libel dispute grows
Isaac Hull Platt of Wallingford Penn argues the second edition of Bliss Perry’s Walt Whitman misstates Whitman’s finances and charitable support. He cites Harned correspondence discrediting Perry’s claims, notes corrections in the new edition, and condemns Perry for distributing anonymous accusations and changing wording to soften false statements.
