useful US history links

Useful sites for US history documents...

• Chronology of US Historical Documents - University of Oklahoma College of Law - about 140 items - includes links to other websites such as "The Papers of George Washington" at the University of Virginia
  
• "From Revolution to Reconstruction" - around 300(?) documents - the classics (Declaration, Constitution), plus, way past reconstruction, with a focus on presidents (state of the union addresses, letters, etc. through Clinton) but also including such gems as the Constitution of the Iroquois Nations, c. 1500).
  
• "Primary Source Documents for US History" - East Tennessee State University Dept of History - Wow! more than 400 documents, with a focus on lesser-known stuff--it looks like all 13 colonial charters are there (including 3 versions of Virginia's!), but the Declaration of Independence is not (see above for that). More recent documents focus on Supreme Court decisions and key laws.*

* and then, among the items listed under "the sixties" are ten Bob Dylan songs and five Phil Ochs songs...and the Communist Manifesto. As if anyone living in the sixties could have written a sentence like "Freeman and slave, patrician and plebeian, lord and serf, guild-master and journeyman, in a word, oppressor and oppressed, stood in constant opposition to one another, carried on an uninterrupted, now hidden, now open fight, a fight that each time ended, either in a revolutionary re-constitution of society at large, or in the common ruin of the contending classes." These history profs are insane. But I digress.
