Notes: An introduction to the group of Annapolis wits whose humorous proceedings have survived in a manuscript at the Johns Hopkins University. The antics of the Tuesday Club open a window on the climate of civil discourse that characterized the Golden Era in Annapolis. In contrast to the political tensions that would soon led to revolution, club members employed parodies to mock political conventions. The actual minutes of the club as edited by Professor Breslaw have been published as the <em>Records of the Tuesday Club, 1745 - 1756</em>.

Notes: County and local newspapers are a vast untapped historical resource. A series of short articles by Tom Chambers demonstrates the important function of county newspapers in local politics during the upheavals of the Civil War era. Harford County, like many other Maryland rural areas, harbored lively competition between newspapers that reflected the political divisions of citizens.
