Totally exhausted after 8 working days in the archive in London, researching a female war correspondent of the First World War. I found an incredible amount of material and look forward to writing the history of this fascinating woman. But my eyes hurt from reading the microfilms 😭

I am currently in London for 2 weeks, researching the only female war correspondent of the London "Times" during World War I. She reported from the Alpine front in Italy. So far I found very exiting documents in the Times' archive (getting there is a nightmare though).

Each day during #WomensHistoryMonth I posted on Twitter about one female war correspondent of the #FirstWorldWar. I have gathered all short biographies of the #WomenWarReporters in a new blog post on my website. Enjoy reading!
