FYI: I noticed in the latest issue of VQR, there is a little article by Jerome Loving and Ed Folsom, along with the first publication of Twain's never before published defense of Walt Whitman. It is something I had heard bout sometime, somewhere, and is surprising especially in its support of WW's sexual content. Btw, VQR has really been transformed, like it's on steroids -- very impressive. Harold K. Bush, Ph.D Saint Louis University St. Louis, MO
