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.

TURIN, Nov. 21.— The American military mission, headed by Brig. Gen. McClernand arrived here to-day and was greeted by the military authorities. The officers are going to Pinerolo to visit the historic Italian military riding school of Piedmont. They will afterward proceed to Paris.
