The columns cover various topics about political challenges, events that occurred for each specific time of the month. Some of the columns might consist of spelling and grammar errors as the collection has to be treated as written diaries for authenticity purposes. In this regard, the search term(s) might not be retrieved due to the misspelling of a Persons name, City/Town, Province and/ or Country.
