Richard Harding Davis (1864-1916) was a writer and journalist best known for his involvement in the William Randolph Hearst's unproven plot to start the Spanish-American War in order to boost newspaper sales. Despite his association with Yellow journalism, his writings of life and travel in Central America and the Carribean have remained a vivid portrait of the time.
Some of his works include:
- Notes Of A War Correspondent
- Cuba in War Time
- The West From A Car Window
- Three Gringos in Venezuela
