The Red Badge of Courage was written by Stephen Crane, published in 1895. The inspiring book contains a series of drastic and emotional events in a young soldier's life during the Civil War. It commences with Henry Fleming's ambitious yet slightly hasty decision to enlist in the Union regiment, against his sentimental mother's desires. The book summarizes the Civil War and the psychological consequences on Henry's young mind.
His courage and sparse cowardliness is displayed throughout the book when his young mind drew the choice to become part of the military and his intensely fought and last battle. These characteristics continued until the moment Henry's mind closed around the concept of victory and he seized the colored flag and raised it to the smoke infested sky.
