    The Viking Portable Library: The Portable Stephen Crane
    • <i>The Portable Stephen Crane</i> allows us to appreciate the full scope and power of this writer's vision. It contains three complete novels - <i>Maggie: A Girl of the Streets, George's Mother,</i> and Crane's masterpiece, <i>The Red Badge of Courage</i>; nineteen short stories and sketches, including " The Blue Hotel" and "The Open Boat", a barely fictionalized account of his own escape from shipwreck while covering the Cuban revolt against Spain; the previously unpublished essay "Above All Things"; letters and poems, plus a critical essay and notes by the noted Crane scholar Joseph Katz.
