American author Stephen Crane, best known for his classic novel of the American Civil War, “The Red Badge of Courage”, was a prolific writer of short stories. His tales are some of the earliest American examples of Naturalism, Impressionism, and the Realist literary movement. Collected together here in this volume, “The Open Boat and Other Stories” are some of his most popular and famous shorter works. In the titular story, “The Open Boat” we find four shipwrecked sailors, the correspondent, the captain, the cook, and the oiler, who find themselves in the desperate situation of being adrift in the open sea. The eight other stories included in this volume are “The Veteran”, “The Bride Comes to Yellow Sky”, “The Men in the Storm”, “The Monster”, “The Blue Hotel”, “His New Mittens”, “A Self-Made Man”, and “The Upturned Face”.
