A WWI Diary That Never Was

WWI Diary was to have brought you the whole of World War I as it was reported in the papers of the day, exactly 100 years later. For a year I blogged news leading up to the big war, thinking if there was any real interest regular readers would trickle in. They did not. Count: zero. So I stopped blogging the war news. For students of the time, 1914-1918 editions are available on the Web as thousands of individual articles via a Times service called Spiderbites.

New York Times 100 years ago today, November 28, 1912:
STOCKHOLM, Nov. 27.— All Swedish naval officers on leave were unexpectedly ordered to join their ships to-day at Karlskrona, the principal station of the navy. Six armored vessels and fourteen torpedo boats put to sea to-night. They are due to arrive at Gothenburg on Dec. 1.
