the lawrence herzog articles

Since 1988, Lawrence Herzog has been documenting Edmonton's colourful past in his It's Our Heritage and Inside Edmonton columns for Edmonton's Real Estate Weekly magazine. His columns have appeared online since 2002.

While Real Estate Weekly is to be commended for hosting Herzog's articles, their site is neither indexed or searchable. The Last Link has taken it upon itself to provide Edmonton online history buffs with a subject guide to the vast resources of Herzog's columns.
