Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Port Arthur Three Months With the Besiegers: A Diurnal of Occurrents It was a curious remnant of the contingent of the Fourth Estate that had for so many months worried the civil and military authorities in Tokio, which was now dumped down with its baggage on the quay of Dalny, this sweltering forenoon of August 4, 1904. We were ten altogether. Young men of means out for the fun of the thing - some looking for means and out for any newspaper that might want an odd war correspondent; two expert photographers, and the legitimate representatives of the ´Telegraph,´ ´Daily Mail,´ The Associated Press, ´The Illustrated London News,´ and other journals, including the correspondent of the ´San Francisco Chronicle,´ Richard Barry, a young Irish-American, who had apparently left his office in such a hurry to catch his boat that he had brought with him nothing but a change of linen and the clothes he stood up in.
