About This Book
"In 1896 William Randolph Hearst sent journalist Richard Harding Davis to Cuba to observe the guerrilla warfare being waged against Spain and to inquire into reports of atrocities. Hearst wanted to boost circulation of his recently purchased New York Journal by filling his paper with accounts of rapine and brutality.". "This edition of Davis's 1898 book, illustrated by Frederic Remington, traces a journalist's abandonment of objectivity and serves as a cautionary tale of the media's - and the public's - susceptibility to grossly sensational accounts of death, pestilence, famine, and war."--BOOK JACKET.
