Badge of Courage: The Life of Stephen Crane
(Linda H. Davis)
World famous at twenty-four, dead at twenty-eight, brilliant, reckless, and ultimately tragic--Stephen Crane is a dramatic study in contradictions. His most famous work, THE RED BADGE OF COURAGE, is a classic antiwar novel. Yet Crane longed for military honors of his own and pursued a career as a war correspondent that took him to battlefields in Greece and Cuba.
A penetrating study of the life and writings of Stephen Crane, author of The Red Badge of Courage , by one of America's greatest poets and critics.
