Hardcover. Condición: Fair. First Edition. [Rare, women-owned, pro-Republican Civil War era newspaper from Hanover, Pennsylvania] A very large and unusual archive. Banner head: "Fearless and Free." The Hanover Spectator was a four page weekly, local paper for York and Adams counties, Pennsylvania. After the death of the publisher Senary Leader in 1858, his widow, Maria Leader, ran the paper. Many of the stories were written by their daughter, Mary Shaw Leader. Mary Leader was a pioneering female Civil War newspaper reporter, who worked in her family's newspaper and famously wrote one of the only full record of Lincoln's Gettysburg Address.
