About this ebook

Stories about American men making fools of themselves gallantly: a millionaire's son who joins the Red Cross to be near a nurse, a reporter, a soldier of fortune. Davis was the most famous American reporter of his age, covered six wars, and was the model Charles Dana Gibson drew for the Gibson Man; he wrote the chivalric American as he wished him to be, and knew perfectly well what he was doing. Fifty-nine plates of American and European painting, from Winslow Homer and Childe Hassam to Edvard Munch, catch the same gallant, restless spirit in city streets, racecourses, and open fields.
