In 1895 Stephen Crane achieved early fame with his powerful, enigmatic portrayal of a raw recruit's experience of war, "The Red Badge of Courage". Although Crane had never experienced battle, he wrote with rare insight and immediacy of his young protagonist's fluctuating emotions, in a style that had a profound influence on American fiction. This selection includes the 1896 coda to the story, "The Veteran", and the best of Crane's other fiction: the impressionist masterpiece "The Open Boat"; "The Monster", perhaps the most complex and disturbing of all Crane's works; and "The Blue Hotel", his greatest western story. This edition explores Crane's work from a fresh critical perspective and introduces new research on the imaginative relationship between Crane's novel and the Civil War.
