I purchased this at the Ponce Inlet Lighthouse after hearing about Crane's adventure in the sinking of the Commodore and open boat trip to the Florida coast. The short story The Open Boat is his fictional account of the experience. The stories, The Bride Comes to Yellow Sky and The Blue Hotel are based on his experiences out west. The first story he published, Maggie: a Girl of the Streets is about poor Irish immigrants in New York and Crane captures the poverty and grime of that existence.

The Open Boat and Other Stories features four prized selections by Stephen Crane, recognized by modern critics as one of the most innovative writers of his generation. "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; and the novella Maggie: A Girl of the Streets is a galvanizing portrait of life in the slums of New York City.
