Stephen Crane1950

"This is a study about the brief, adventurous, travel-worn life - and specifically its relationship to the writings - of Stephen Crane (1871-1900), the American poet, novelist, and short story writer. Despite being an artist of immense talent and achievements, Crane, who died at the age of twenty-eight, quickly slipped into obscurity. Berryman's biography revived Crane's reputation and delineated the scope of his artistic accomplishment."--BOOK JACKET.
