Passed by the Censor by Wythe Williams recounts the author's experiences as a newspaper correspondent in France during World War I.

Williams explores the delicate balance between reporting the truth and adhering to the strict regulations set by the censoring authorities, highlighting the tension between the need for information and the necessity of wartime secrecy. Through a series of anecdotes and reflections, Williams paints a vivid picture of his time in France, offering readers a glimpse into the life of a war correspondent. The narrative provides both personal insights and broader commentary on the role of the press during wartime, examining the limitations placed on free expression and the responsibility of journalists to report responsibly.
