Stories

Although his most famous work The Red Badge of Courage was created almost entirely from his imagination, Stephen Crane didn't hesitate to seek out life's most demanding lessons for himself -- including poverty, shipwrecks and as a war correspondent.

Listeners will be amazed at Crane's rich imagery and deft exposure of the human condition in the four stories recorded here, as well as his skill at painting a vivid picture of life in New York City at the turn of the century.
