New York Times 100 years ago today, May 27, 1913:
LONDON, May 26.— Nothing is known in official circles here of the formal cession to Great Britain by Turkey of the Island of Cyprus, reported in a Constantinople dispatch to The Daily Express.
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.
