"Passed by the Censor: The Experience of an American Newspaper Man in France" by Wythe Williams is a historical account written in the early 20th century. The book offers an insider's perspective on the experiences of a journalist covering World War I as a correspondent for the New York Times, navigating the complexities of war reporting amidst heavy censorship and the evolving nature of conflict. Wythe Williams, the main character, provides vivid depictions of life on the front lines and the struggles faced by journalists to relay accurate information during a time of chaos and uncertainty. The opening of the book sets the stage for the unfolding events of World War I, beginning with an atmosphere of anticipation as the author reflects on the days leading up to the war's outbreak. Williams recounts a particular pivotal day in July 1914 while covering a high-profile court case, during which he witnesses a sudden shift in public sentiment towards impending conflict. As news of a panic on the Bourse spreads, the air thickens with the tension of impending war. The chapter transitions from a seemingly mundane legal setting to the dramatic realization that war is upon Europe, highlighting the author’s initial disbelief and curiosity as he prepares to report on the momentous changes that are about to reshape the continent. This establishes the tone for an insightful exploration of the realities faced by journalists during wartime.
