{"product_id":"a-wasted-day-richard-harding-davis-9781517210786","title":"A Wasted Day","description":"This early work by Richard Harding Davis was originally published in the early 20th century and we are now republishing it with a brand new introductory biography. 'A Wasted Day' is a short story by this famous war correspondent. Davis attended Lehigh University and Johns Hopkins University, but was asked to leave both due to neglecting his studies in favour socialising. During the Second Boer War in South Africa, Davis was a leading correspondent of the conflict. He saw the war first-hand from both parties perspectives and documented it in his publication 'With Both Armies' (1900). He wrote widely from locations such as the Caribbean, Central America, and even from the perspective of the Japanese forces during the Russo-Japanese War. Davis died following a heart attack on 11th April, 1916, at the age of 51.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Richard Harding Davis\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 151721078X\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781517210786\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Createspace Independent Publishing Platform\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 09\/05\/2015\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 38\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.10lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 7.99h x 5.00w x 0.08d","brand":"Richard Harding Davis","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":48088503648511,"sku":"9781517210786","price":7.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_0a46070e-137e-4ee1-b54e-77b7a4574892.jpg?v=1769105126","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/a-wasted-day-richard-harding-davis-9781517210786","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
