Founded in 1897 and published in Cambridge, MD, the Daily Banner chronicled the news of the day. Its editors generally reflected the interests of readers on Maryland's Eastern Shore where maritime concerns predominated. The paper provided a snapshot of local society and culture, while keeping its readers informed of broader national and international events.
