Stephen Crane remembered

"This book collects reminiscences by contemporaries, friends, and associates of Stephen Crane that illuminate the life of this often misunderstood and misrepresented writer. Although Crane is widely regarded as a major American author, conclusions about his life, work, and thought remain obscure due to the difficulties in separating fact from fiction. The 75 reminiscences gathered here offer an account of Crane's life from a variety of viewpoints, as well as important information about the contributors themselves."--Jacket.
