Biography

Hardback. Stephen Crane's short, compact life--"a life of fire," he called it--is surrounded by myths, distortions, and fabrications. Paul Sorrentino has sifted through garbled chronologies and contradictory eyewitness accounts, scoured the archives, and followed in Crane's footsteps. The result is the most accurate account of the poet and novelist to date. Num Pages: 452 pages, illustrations (black and white). BIC Classification: 1KBB; BGL; DSB. Category: (G) General (US: Trade). Dimension: 164 x 237 x 36. Weight in Grams: 938.
