Description
1906. Davis was an American journalist and novelist who covered wars all over the world. His vivid accounts made him one of the leading reporters of his day. Captain Macklin begins: It may seem presumptuous that so young a man as myself should propose to write his life and memoirs, for, as a rule, one waits until he has accomplished something in the world, or until he has reached old age, before he ventures to tell of the times in which he has lived, and of his part in them. But the profession to which I belong, which is that of a soldier, and which is the noblest profession a man can follow, is a hazardous one, and were I to delay until tomorrow to write down what I have seen and done, these memoirs might never be written, for, such being the fortune of war, tomorrow might not come.
