Description: The Red Badge of Courage by Stephen Crane (1980 Easton Press Leather Hardcover)The Red Badge of Courage is a war novel by American author Stephen Crane (1871–1900). Taking place during the American Civil War, the story is about a young private of the Union Army, Henry Fleming, who flees from the field of battle. Overcome with shame, he longs for a wound, a "red badge of courage," to counteract his cowardice. When his regiment once again faces the enemy, Henry acts as standard-bearer, who carries an American Flag.The novel is known for its distinctive style, which includes realistic battle sequences as well as the repeated use of color imagery, and ironic tone. Separating itself from a traditional war narrative, Crane's story reflects the inner experience of its protagonist (a soldier fleeing from combat) rather than the external world around him.Collector's Edition / Bound in Genuine Leather / Measures 10" x 7" / Vintage Hardcover / Easton Press / 1980 / Very Good Condition / Gold-Gilded Page-Ends
