In these tales, battle is not presented as pageantry or patriotic romance, but as confusion, fear, absurdity, cruelty, and sudden revelation.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eBierce's Civil War fiction includes some of the most powerful short stories in American literature, combining battlefield realism with the eerie compression and moral shock that made him one of the great masters of the short form. His work helped shape the modern war story by stripping away heroic convention and exposing the inner violence of combat, command, memory, and survival. This edition will interest readers of American Civil War fiction, classic American literature, short stories, psychological war fiction, military fiction, and nineteenth-century literary realism.\u003c\/p\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNumber of Pages:\u003c\/strong\u003e 116\u003c\/div\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDimensions:\u003c\/strong\u003e 0.44 x 9 x 6 IN\u003c\/div\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePublication Date:\u003c\/strong\u003e April 03, 2018\u003c\/div\u003e\n            ","brand":"Books by splitShops","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":43426608676931,"sku":"9781515427209","price":34.18,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"url":"https:\/\/store7994.com\/products\/civil-war-stories-classic-american-war-stories-from-the-battlefields-of-the-civil-war-hardcover","provider":"STORE 7994","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
