War Herald

[b3rn]

An experiment -- 'War Herald' collects, programatically, mentions of war and empire in Australian newspapers, 100 years ago, today.

The headlines emailed to you might even work!

"Looking back, the course of history appears inevitable, but how would it have been seen by the men and women of 1914?"

Inspired by Centurion's monthly posts, War Herald is generated from a daily search of Australian newspapers on Trove, and is a research tool for my wife's play Through These Lines.

Caveat: likely to break; behind the scenes it's sticky tape and string.
