| dc.description.abstract | Founded in 1844, the Port Tobacco Times chronicled the news of this small town in southern Maryland. Agricultural interests were a major interest to readers, but the advent of the Civil War soon created tensions for the deeply conservative residents of Port Tobacco. Both the town and its newspaper disappeared in the 1890s when the Charles County seat moved to La Plata. | en_US |
