The book Leaves of Grass was written by which author?

  1. Walt Whitman

  2. Emily Dickinson

  3. Edgar Allan Poe

  4. Stephen Crane

The correct answer is: Walt Whitman

Walt Whitman is the correct answer, as Leaves of Grass is one of his most well-known works. While Emily Dickinson was a contemporary poet, she did not write Leaves of Grass. Edgar Allan Poe and Stephen Crane were both American authors, but neither wrote Leaves of Grass. Therefore, these options are incorrect.
