Tungkol sa ebook na ito
These vigorous pictures were among the very last work done by the lamented pen which gave us "The Red Badge of Courage." We were aroused by that startling drumbeat to the advent of a new literary talent. The commonplace was shattered by a fresh and original force, and every one heard and applauded. Then came the varied fiction, always characteristic and convincing, and then, at the end, this return to the martial strain. It was agreed that the battles should be the choice of the author, and he chose them for their picturesque and theatric qualities, not alone for their decisiveness. What he could best assimilate from history was its grandeur and passion and the fire of action. These he loved, and hence the group of glorious battles which forms this volume. The talent of Stephen Crane was mellowing under the tutelage of experience. He lost none of his dash and audacity even in the sedater avenues of history. He was a strong and native growth of our wonderful soil, and the fruits of him will last while courage and genius are revered.
Tungkol sa may-akda
Stephen Crane was born November 1, 1871 and raised mostly by his siblings in New Jersey. He was an American novelist, poet and journalist. After attending various colleges, he traveled to New York to work as a reporter. Stephen became a highly paid war correspondent writing for William Randolph Hearst and Joseph Pulitzer. He wrote numerous short stories, poems and accounts of war, but none gave him the acclaim that The Red Badge of Courage did, written in 1895. During the last year of his life he took refuge in the south of England. Plagued by exhaustion and ill health, he died on June 5, 1900 at the age of 28.
