General Information about Cambridge
Cambridge is a city in Dorchester County, Maryland, United States. The population was 10,911 at the 2000 census. It is the county seat of Dorchester County[1]. Four of Maryland's governors, as well as sharpshooter Annie Oakley, writer John Barth, and baseball player Troy Brohawn have called Cambridge home, as have four different teams in the old Eastern Shore Baseball League -- the Canners, Cardinals, Clippers, and Dodgers. WCEM-FM broadcasts FM radio from Cambridge. Cambridge suffered the closure of a major cannery in the 1960s.[2]
From 1962 until 1967, Cambridge was a center of protests during the Civil Rights Movement. During this period, race-related violence erupted on more than one occasion, and the city was occupied for almost a year by the Maryland National Guard as a peace-keeping force.[3]
