Editorial Reviews: Product Description Written by Stephen Crane at the age of twenty-one, The Red Badge of Courage is one of the greatest war novels of all time -- so groundbreaking that critics consider it to be the first work of modern American fiction. Although Crane never witnessed warfare, The Red Badge of Courage is a realistic and terrifying account of the Civil War and the fear that a young soldier must face on the battlefield as well as within himself.

Customer Reviews: All Quiet on the Rappahannock July 13, 2006 0 out of 3 found this review helpful Henry Fleming, a young soldier, had enlisted. Camp life proved monotonous. He was drilled. He had a serious problem. He was afraid he would run from battle. The amusement of an attempted horse theft caused the entire regiment to forget its own large war. A loud soldier told Henry he wouldn't run, he would do his share of fighting. The men marched and the regiment lost its newness. Still the group was too large, too uniform, roo bright and colorful to be a group of veterans. Then, one morning, the time for war had come. Henry was in a moving box. It would be impossible to escape from the regiment. Stopping, the men dug in the ground like terriers. Henry had been taught a man became another thing in battle. This was to be his salvation. There was an imprint on the faces of the men who had been in battle. The youth shot with his rifle. He lost concern for himself and became a member of his unit. He felt anger against swirling battle phantoms. A lieutenant helped him reload his gun. The atmosphere was foul. The captain had been killed. Surviving the first exchange of fire, the youth felt exultant. Then they came again. He was surprised to hear his side had won after all. The line had held. He did not realize he had been hit until a tattered man told him so. Henry, the youth, had run off at a point, and needed to find his way back to his battle group. He recognized Jim Conklin, in his mind the tall soldier. Jim feared being run over by the wagons. Jim Conklin died. Henry had a scorching thirst. His feet were like two sores. His head wound pained him little, but he did not want to move too quickly because he he did not want to disturb it. Someone, a cheery voice, overtook him and guided him back to his unit. His corporal took care of him, using the fire to see. The loud young soldier wrapped his head in a handkerchief. His friend was no longer a loud young soldier, he had acquired purpose and reserve. Confidence in himself bloomed in Henry Fleming's mind. The regiment was marched out to replace another. Noise of skirmishes came from the woods. As a joke Henry wanted to give a report to the newspapers that all was quiet on the Rappahannock. He was tormented by flies. He shot until there wasn't anything left at which to shoot. The men were ordered to charge. Unconscious of the fact, Henry was in advance of his line. There was delirium encountering despair and death, a sublime absence of selfishness. He had a vague belief that he had run miles. He ran like a madman to reach the woods and safety. Much of the regiment had crumpled away. The men were worn by the turmoil. In the next encounter with the other side, Henry sensed the wolf-like temper of his comrades. The bruised and battered regiment was free. The men felt there was a mistake when a superior was reproached that the regiment had performed less than admirably. The youth became the bearer of the colors. The enemy came within range, and as the men drew up their guns, the enemy retreated. Part of the youth's wild battle madness was a product of thinking of the concussion, the clash of the two armies meeting.
