I've already found several sites I didn't know existed. This is a nice resource, thanks.

Man, I read that as "Brief History of Web Sites" and was very confused as to why Biblical and Medieval histories were on the list...

I wish all 'best of' lists were as no-nonsense as this one. Good find zarq, thank you for making my stacks of historical nonfiction even more obsolete.

Thanks for this! I've already found out that I my personality most closely resembles the emperor Claudius. I'm not sure how I feel about that.

Ooo, terrific, thank you! Basic history is something I always feel I should know more about, and these resources are perfect in that regard. :D

Another place to find well annotated web resources focused on American history is at the History Matters project site at George Mason University.
