Through Henry Fleming, Crane creates a great and realistic study of the mind of an inexperienced soldier trapped in the fury and turmoil of war. Fleming dashes into battle, at first is tormented by fear, and later is bolstered with courage in time for the final confrontation. This is a superb and exciting story that places the listener in the midst of the Civil War.
