SynopsisAs important a book today as it was when it was first written,The Red Badge of Couragetells the story of Henry Fielding, a farm boy who sets out in search of glory by running away from home to join the Civil War, only to find himself running away from the battlefield in terror during the first skirmish. Mortified by his cowardice, Henry yearns for a wound, his own red badge of courage, which would legitimize his desertion of his company. When Henry is finally wounded, he finds himself feeling real anger for the very first time, and finally is able to redeem himself.First published in 1865, and in print for 137 years, Stephen Crane's story is considered one of the most important novels of the nineteenth century. It explores the dual natures of battle -- the simultaneous sensations of beauty and violence, of terror and triumph -- and masterfully mirrors them to Henry's own inner turmoil. Fervent and patriotic illustrations by Wendell Minor makeThe Red Badge of Couragean important addition to the Scribner Illustrated Classics series., Regarded as one of the most important novels of the 19th century, The Red Badge of Courage joins the Scribner Illustrated Classics series. This Civil War saga explores the dual natures of battle and the simultaneous sensations of beauty and violence. Full-color illustrations.
