The Red Badge of Courage

What does it mean to be brave? One soldier's journey will challenge everything you thought you knew.

In The Red Badge of Courage, Stephen Crane delivers one of the most gripping depictions of war ever written — and he did it without ever experiencing battle himself. This landmark novel follows Henry Fleming, a young Union soldier who dreams of glory but is confronted with fear, shame, and ultimately, redemption on the Civil War battlefield.

With poetic realism and psychological depth, Crane captures the raw emotions of combat and the inner turmoil of a boy-turned-man. Celebrated for its revolutionary style and bold honesty, this book remains a cornerstone of American literature.
