Product Description
The original CliffsNotes study guides offer expert commentary on major themes, plots, characters, literary devices, and historical background. The latest generation of titles in this series also feature glossaries and visual elements that complement the classic, familiar format. Stephen Crane wrote the first draft of The Red Badge of Courage in only ten days. This CliffsNotes supplement carries you along as the story of a young boy named Henry Fleming faces his first battle — not only in war but with his own fear, pride, and cowardice — unfolds. It still remains as one of the best novels about the American Civil War. This study guide carefully walks you through every step of Henry’s ordeal by providing summaries and critical analyses of each chapter of the novel. You'll also explore the life and background of the author and gain insight into how he came to write The Red Badge of Courage. Other features that help you study include - A character map to highlight the relationships between characters
- Glossaries after each chapter to define new and unfamiliar terms
- Critical essays covering topics like figurative language and the structure of the novel
- A review section that tests your knowledge
- A Resource Center with books and Web sites for more study
Classic literature or modern modern-day treasure — you'll understand it all with expert information and insight from CliffsNotes study guides.

The Red Mark on my Face I Got From Sleeping On This Book. October 31, 2001
1 out of 4 found this review helpful
The book The Red Badge of Courage wasn't with out its points. For example in my history of reading civil war novels, they tend to focus on the politics of the war more then the war it self. This book was more about the fighting and what a man went through in the battles. But what the book gained in action it lost in the long winded description. Also personally the version i had to read contained very little letters, and when i'm nearly asleep from the subject matter those little letters would blur together and really knock me out. It had what i refer to as dictionary print and i think all people out there can relate.
The truth is i really didn't read a whole lot of this book becuase i could get about 7 or 8 pages down before i would start sleeping and the parts i did read were difficult to understand so i would recomend cliff notes for this particular book. All together i gave it 2 stars, So i hope who ever may read this enjoys it more then i did.

I had to read this book for english class. Before we read the book we read some notes about it and it sounded like a good book. After I read it though, I have to say it sucked. It was a long boring snooze fest. I'd have to say some praise is due but it was just too long, boring, descriptive to keep anybody's attention. I found that even if I read it slowly I couldn't retain any of it. Take my advice and don't read this book unless you absolutely have to.

These Cliff Notes on The Red Badge of Courage were a great help on a project I had to do for school. I didn't have much time and the project was worth a lot of points. With this at hand, I finished the report with all the qualifications, topics and details I needed. If you're in a hurry to read this book or you don't understand it well, get this book.
