Description
One of the greatest works of American literature, The Red Badge of Courage gazes fearlessly into the bright hell of war through the eyes of one young soldier, the reluctant Henry Fleming. Written by Stephen Crane at the age of twenty-one, the novel imagines the Civil War’s terror and loss with an unblinking vision so modern and revolutionary that, upon publication, critics hailed it as a work of literary genius. Ernest Hemingway declared, “There was no real literature of our Civil War . . . until Stephen Crane wrote The Red Badge of Courage.” This Modern Library Paperback Classics edition includes the short story “The Veteran,” Crane’s tale of an aged Civil War soldier looking back at his past.
