    About this audiobook

    This is a short novel published in 1895 and based vaguely on the battle of Chancellorsville of the American Civil War. Unlike other works on the subject, Crane's novel does not concentrate on the big picture or the glory of war but on the psychology of one of its soldiers.

      Deservedly, a classic. Vividly descriptive. Dialogue-wise, solid listening pleasure. Very well narrated. I waited too long to read this, but better later than not at all!
