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.

Turkish Cruiser Off for Aegean Sea.

New York Times 100 years ago today, February 11, 1913:
PORT SAID, Feb. 10.— The Turkish cruiser Hamidieh, which evaded the Greek fleet in the Aegean Sea some weeks ago and passed through the Suez Canal, reappeared here to-day, having arrived from the Red Sea at midnight. She proceeded immediately toward the Aegean Sea with all her lights out.
