I loved getting to know about the characters in this book. They were very real and very accessible. It was a story of a young man's inner conflict while thinking of and facing battle in the Civil War, and in it Crane wrote with insight, candor and irony. He made the book not only worth the read, but also worth all the debate that it has caused for so many years.
This is a nice short read. I don't think Taylor would enjoy it ;), but there are others of you who might find it quite a lot of fun.
