First published serially in 1894 and lengthened for the book publication in 1895, "The Red Badge of Courage" is a classic modern depiction of the psychological turmoil of war from the perspective of an ordinary soldier. The story revolves around Henry Fleming, a member of the 304th regiment of the Union Army, serving during the American Civil War. At the start of the novel Henry is eager to show his patriotism in battle but when faced with the savagery of death he flees the frontline. Ashamed of his behavior, Henry spends the rest of the novel trying to redeem his earlier cowardice. Instantly popular from its original publication, "The Red Badge of Courage" garnered what H. G. Well's would refer to as an "orgy of praise", bringing Crane instant notoriety in the United States and abroad. Noted for its unique style, the work has been described as at once naturalistic, realistic, and impressionistic. Although never having seen battle Stephen Crane vividly depicted the grueling intensity of war in his landmark work. This edition is printed on premium acid-free paper.
Stephen Crane, born on November 1, 1871, in Newark, New Jersey, was the fourteenth child of a Methodist minister and his wife. Despite a brief stint at Syracuse University, he left academia to pursue a career in journalism and literature. His early experiences reporting on New York City's impoverished neighborhoods profoundly influenced his writing.In 1893, Crane self-published his first novel, Maggie: A Girl of the Streets, which is considered one of the earliest works of American literary naturalism. He gained international acclaim with his 1895 novel, The Red Badge of Courage, a vivid portrayal of a soldier's experience during the Civil War. Notably, Crane wrote this realistic account without having any personal military experience.Beyond his novels, Crane was also a prolific journalist and war correspondent, covering conflicts such as the Greco-Turkish War and the Spanish-American War. His adventurous life and relentless work ethic took a toll on his health. He died of tuberculosis at the age of 28 on June 5, 1900, in Badenweiler, Germany, leaving behind a significant literary legacy that influenced future generations of writers.
