 This collection features four prized selections by one of America’s greatest writers, Stephen Crane. “The Open Boat” is based on a harrowing incident in the author’s life: the 1897 sinking of a ship on which he was a passenger. “The Blue Hotel” and “The Bride Comes to Yellow Sky” reflect Crane’s early travels in Mexico and the American Southwest. The novella Maggie: A Girl of the Streets is a galvanizing portrait of life in the slums of New York City.
