About this book

A young Union soldier named Henry Fleming marches off to the Civil War dreaming of glory, only to be overwhelmed by terror and flee his first battle in shame—then wrestles with cowardice, courage, and the meaning of manhood as he returns to the fighting. Crane, who had never seen combat, rendered the chaos, fear, and strange beauty of war with astonishing psychological realism and impressionistic power. Focusing not on strategy but on one frightened boy's inner experience, The Red Badge of Courage revolutionized war fiction. Vivid, intense, and unflinching, it remains one of the greatest American novels and a landmark portrait of the soldier's mind under fire.
