The Examiner & Herald was published weekly in Lancaster, Pa., during the middle years of the nineteenth century, although the newspaper's name changed a number of times during that period. By digitizing the years 1834 - 1872, we provide our patrons with a view of politics and events of this tumultuous period from a liberal political slant, providing balance to the more conservative perspective of The Intelligencer-Journal.
