About this book
The Deserter is credited to Richard Harding Davis, with an introduction by John T. McCutcheon. The introduction says Mr. Davis could not possibly have foreseen that the story of The Deserter was to be his last story. A writer says the name of the young soldier is given as Hamlin. The text describes a huge room, used as chamber, living-room, workroom, clubroom, and sometimes dining-room, in the Olympos Palace Hotel in Salonika.
The text says Mr. Davis joined the room's occupants in November of 1915 and for some days shared the room until he could secure another in the same hotel. John says, Give me your steamer ticket, Fred, and I'll have them change it. John whispers in the hall, Let me talk to him. The boat sails in an hour. Please don't come back until she's gone.
