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, February 21, 1913:

MONTENEGRINS ARE DEFIANT
Declaration to Britain That Nation Will Suffer Annihilation Rather Than Give Up Scutari.
ST. PETERSBURG, Feb. 20.— Rumania to-day asked Russia to arbitrate on the question at issue with Bulgaria.
Russia, it is stated in authoritative quarters, will accept the task.
