Franz Verdinand's Diary: Sarajevo, Bosnia And Herzegovina

June 28, 1914: Sarajevo, Bosnia and Herzegovina I screamed in agony, all eyes now turned to me as I stood over the lifeless body of Franz Ferdinand on the street of Sarajevo, Bosnia and Herzegovina. I got up and ran. I had just witnessed my father die and all of his blood was on me. I couldn’t get the image of his lifeless eyes out of my head. As I ran, I saw a man. A man who looked familiar, as I approached him, he ran. He was the man that shot my father. I sprinted towards him tackling him. There I stood, with my father’s killer right in my hands. I looked into his eyes and saw fear. The air turned black all around me. As I held his head in my hands, I took out a knife and stabbed him. He screamed, but I didn’t care. I got up and left his
