Appleton & Co. have issued new edition
of the late Stephen Cranes RED Badge of
Courage'-the book with which he first
won fame. and which, in the opinion of
many readers, is his best piece of work.
The story Is that of the experience of a
young, inexperienced soldier in one of the
fierce battles of the civil war, and no one
can read it without feeling the thrill of
reality, the sense of wonder, of hope, of
fear, of horror that moved the young SOL
der through the long and bloody day. 1t
Is a wonderfully vivid and intense por-
trayal OF what ii is felt, must have been
the sensations of those volunteers, or the
sensations OF any soldiers engaged in ac-
tual war for the first time. And the most
remarkable thing about ii is that when
Crane wrote the book he was himself a
mere boy and had never seen a battle or
even the smallest engagement. There are
eXtravagances of statement and peculiar
and not admirable phrases and forms OF
expression, but as a whole the manner In
which the camp life is depicted. the con-
versations and actions of the men before
and curing the battle and afterward set
forth make 1t a remarkable production.
Crane was afterwards a war correspondent
and saw real fighting. but his descriptions
OF 1t were commonplace. His Imagination
mad not been appealed to, and his work
therefore lacked inspiration and became
perfunctory. 1.-The Red Badge of Cour-
age is not pleasing book, because its
theme Is war; but ii is passionate, DOW
hold its place among the permanent things
in literature.
