    The correct answer is C: Whitman focused on the experiences of individual soldiers.

    Walt Whitman arrived to Washington in 1863 looking for his brother George, who was in the war. After searching in nearly forty Washington hospitals, he found his brother alive and having only suffered a superficial facial wound. This experience drove him to observed the human costs of battle. Whitman consoled the soldiers by writing their stories, writing letters to them, giving them some gifts and comforting them through conservation.
