August 5, 1914: A Dramatic Beginning to the Great War - This historic photograph showcases a placard bearing the headlines of The Times newspaper, announcing the outbreak of the First World War. The capitalized letters boldly proclaim "Germany Declares War on Serbia," marking the start of a global conflict that would last for over four years and fundamentally alter the course of world history. The headlines read "Britain at War," signifying the entry of the United Kingdom into the war, which was initially triggered by the assassination of Archduke Franz Ferdinand of Austria-Hungary in Sarajevo. The media played a crucial role in disseminating news and information during this time, as the world watched with bated breath as events unfolded. Letters and telegrams poured in from around the globe, as people sought to understand the implications of this momentous announcement. The Times, as one of the leading newspapers of the day, was at the forefront of reporting on this dramatic and uncertain beginning to the First World War.
