Few of us spend much time thinking about courage, but we know it when we see it--or do we? Is it best displayed by marching into danger, making the charge, or by resisting, enduring without complaint? Is it physical or moral, or both? Is it fearless, or does it involve subduing fear? Abner Small, a Civil War soldier, was puzzled by what he called the "mystery of bravery"; to him, courage and cowardice seemed strangely divorced from character and will. It is this mystery, just as puzzling in our day, that William Ian Miller unravels in this engrossing meditation. Miller culls sources as varied as soldiers' memoirs, heroic and romantic literature, and philosophical discussions to get to the heart of courage--and to expose its role in generating the central anxieties of masculinity and manhood. He probes the link between courage and fear, and explores the connection between bravery and seemingly related states: rashness, stubbornness, madness, cruelty, fury; pride and fear of disgrace; and the authority and experience that minimize fear. By turns witty and moving, inquisitive and critical, his inquiry takes us from ancient Greece to medieval Europe, to the American Civil War, to the Great War and Vietnam, with sidetrips to the schoolyard, the bedroom, and the restaurant. Whether consulting Aristotle or private soldiers, Miller elicits consistently compelling insights into a condition as endlessly interesting as it is elusive.

Then the blue Bullets flew, And the trooper-jackets redden at the touch of the leaden Rifle-breath; And rounder, ronnder, rounder roared the iron sixpounder, Hurling death! Gut Humphrey Momastek. 6 SONG OF MARION'S MEN, Our band is few, bnt true and tried, Our leader frank and bold; The British soldier trembles When Marion's name is told. Our fortress is the good greenwood, Our tent the cypress-tree; We know the forest round us, As seamen know the sea; We know its walls of thorny vines, Its glades of reedy grass, Its safe and silent islands Within the dark morass. Woe to the English soldiery That little dread us near I On them shall light at midnight A strange and sndden fear; When, waking to their tents on fire, They grasp their arms in vain, And they who stand to face ns Are beat to earth again; And they who fly in terror deem A mighty host behind, And hear the tramp of thousands Upon the hollow wind. Then sweet the hour that brings release From danger and from toil: We talk the battle over, And share the battle's spoil. The woodland rings with langh and shont, As if a hunt were np, And woodland flowers are gathered To crown the soldier's cup.

The glitter of their rifles, The scampering of their steeds. 'Tis life to guide the fiery barb Across the moonlight plain; 'Tis life to feel the night-wind That lifts his tossing mane.

"If it is necessary that I should fall on the battlefield for . . . my courage does not halt or falter" – Major Sullivan Ballou, 1861, prior to the Battle of Bull Run In Courage Under Fire, award-winning historian Wiley Sword captures the fervor of a nation at war with itself; a war that pitted brother against brother. Through the immediacy of diaries and letters written not only on the battlefields and in camps but also on the deathbeds of soldiers from both the North and South, Sword lays bare the complexities and depth of a soldier's mind in coming to grips with life and death – even while his country, and often his family, is mercilessly ripped apart. From wives and mothers to the highest military figures, all strived toward often worthy but difficult objectives, while seeking to suffer as little as possible. Featured in this compelling study of men and women facing the severest stress of their lives are fascinating stories such as that of Union Lieutenant Colonel Frank Curtiss. He was ordered to take his regiment, the 127th Illinois, in a hopeless charge against the enemy's fortified lines at Atlanta, Ga. on August 3, 1864. Aware that many of his men would die needlessly and for minimal tactical gain, he refused to obey these orders. The moral courage to fight meant also to appropriately assess the risks and weigh the loss in lives of one's soldiers. Confederate General John Bell Hood's decision to sacrifice much of his army at Franklin, Tennessee on November 30th 1864, ranks as one of the saddest events of the war. His aggressive behavior is assessed in terms of both moral and physical courage, providing a revealing insight into the character of one of the war's key commanders. The prospect of death in battle was a fearsome prospect for Lucy Morse, who kept desperate hope her husband, William H. Morse, would survive the fighting. She wrote to him,"I was almost crazy before I heard from you for fear that you had shared the fate of many a brave soldier." Her story and that of the fateful events in their lives provides graphic evidence of the fiber of America's soldiers and their worthy families. In a revealing portrait of courage and its often bloody consequences, Wiley Sword conveys a vivid picture of bravery under extreme stress, which is fully appropriate in today's world.

Stephen Crane's "The Red Badge of Courage" is a timeless masterpiece that immerses readers in the harrowing experience of war. Set against the backdrop of the American Civil War, this novel follows the journey of Henry Fleming, a young soldier grappling with fear, courage, and the harsh realities of battle. As Henry leaves his farm and joins the Union Army, he is driven by a romanticized vision of war. However, when he faces the chaos and violence of the battlefield, his bravado fades, and he becomes consumed by self-doubt. Crane skillfully explores Henry's internal struggles, making this novel a profound examination of the human psyche under extreme pressure. The title, "The Red Badge of Courage," refers to the injuries soldiers wear as symbols of their bravery. Through Henry's eyes, we witness the transformation of a frightened youth into a battle-hardened soldier. The novel navigates themes of heroism, cowardice, and the unpredictable nature of conflict. Crane's vivid prose thrusts readers into the heart of the Civil War, evoking the sights, sounds, and emotions of combat. His portrayal of the psychological toll of war remains hauntingly relevant to this day, resonating with anyone interested in the human experience during times of crisis. "The Red Badge of Courage" is not just a war novel; it's a profound exploration of the human condition. It challenges our understanding of bravery and cowardice and offers a gripping narrative that continues to captivate readers, reminding us of the enduring impact of war on individuals and societies. ABOUT THE AUTHOR Stephen Crane, born on November 1, 1871, in Newark, New Jersey, was an American novelist and short story writer. He gained fame for his realistic depiction of war and his keen understanding of human nature. Crane's most renowned work, "The Red Badge of Courage," published in 1895, is a gripping novel that explores the psychological turmoil of a young soldier during the American Civil War.
