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).

Davis died following a heart attack on 11th April, 1916, at the age of 51. Less
