"Henry Fleming, a raw Union Army recruit in the American Civil War, is anxious to confirm his patriotism and manhood - to earn his 'badge of courage.' But his dreams of heroism and invulnerability are soon shattered when he flees the Confederate enemy during his baptism of fire and then witnesses the horrible death of a friend. Plunged unwillingly into the nightmare of war, Fleming survives by sheer luck and instinct. / Stephen Crane (1871-1900) was active as a reporter around the world in addition to being an acclaimed novelist." - Publisher. Very Good.
