The publication of The Red Badge of Courage in 1895 brought Stephen Crane instant fame at age 23. At 28, he was dead. In the brief span of his literary career, Crane enjoyed a significant measure of renown as well as notoriety, but his reputation rested almost entirely upon his war novel, and he felt that his talent had ultimately been misjudged.

To this day, most educated American readers know him only as the author of the most realistic Civil War novel ever written, three or four action-packed short stories, and a handful of iconoclastic free-verse poems. Crane was befriended and admired by some of the most important literary figures of his time, such as William Dean Howells, Willa Cather, Joseph Conrad, Henry James, and H. G. Wells. He has also been called a realist, a naturalist, an impressionist, a symbolist, and an existentialist. This reference book provides a more complete picture of Crane's short
Editorial : "Here is a magisterial accomplishment, composed by the person best qualified to prepare it. Stanley Wertheim's longtime interest in, collecting of, and publishing about Stephen Crane come to wonderful fruition in this Encyclopedia.A Stephen Crane Encyclopedia appeals to anyone involved with Anglo-American literary currents and eddies during "transition" years. Crane was important in that transition, and as such he should not go unrecognized except as the author of either The Red Badge of Courage or Maggie - only those and nothing more. Wertheim makes us aware that there is plenty more."-English Literature in Transition
"Highly recommended for reference shelves in libraries acquiring essential works on late nineteenth century Anglo American relations, literature and culture."-Library Review
"Though there are a number of books on and about Crane, including bibliographies and biographies, there is not another work like this one; it deserves to be in every college and
