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, December 21, 1912:
Correspondent Says Formal Agreement to Continue War Is Made.
NAPLES, Saturday, Dec. 21.— The Vienna correspondent of the Corrier del Mattino says Turkey and Austria have concluded a formal agreement, under which Turkey undertakes to insure the failure of the peace negotiations, and on the resumption of hostilities Austria will march two armies across Servia and Macedonia on Salonika.
