Review: The Red Badge of Courage, written in 1895 by Stephen Crane (1871-1900), is considered by many literary critics to be one of the greatest of all American novels. This is a book about the Civil War, and one Union soldier?s struggle with his inner...

The Red Badge of Courage

Date of Review:  May 25, 2002

  Conrad, Joseph: "As to 'masterpiece,' there is no doubt that 'The Red Badge of Courage' is that, if only because of the marvellous accord of the vivid, impressionistic description of action on that woodland battlefield and the imagined style of the analysis of...the inward moral struggle going on in the breast of one individual--the young soldier."
