Product Description
Stephen Crane's weirdly impressionistic "The Red Badge of Courage" is one of the first non-romantic novels of the Civil War - and the first non-romantic account to gain wide popularity. Paul Sorrentino introduces "Red Badge" to a new generation of readers for a fuller appreciation of the novel and its effects. He has selected as his text the first edition, published by D. Appleton & Co. in 1895.
