"The Japanese Historical Map Collection contains about 2,300 early maps of Japan and the World." Cool! Looks like you need to use a special viewer or something.

The Japanese Historical Map Collection contains about 2,300 early maps of Japan and the World. The collection was acquired by the University of California from the Mitsui family in 1949, and is housed on the Berkeley campus in the East Asian Library. Represented in this online collection are over 1100 images of maps and books from this Collection.

Excellent site for Asian history resources.

Check out Visualizing Cultures site as well, from MIT: http://ocw.mit.edu/ans7870/21f/21f.027/home/index.html

That's cool! Thanks.

Has links to a number of historical source collections on various topics. How thoughtful of those lovely people in Wisconsin.

Articles on twentieth century American history, mainly focused on foreign policy and military history.

Might be useful for younger classes looking at Korean history and society in the Joseon Period. There usually isn't much on the topic.
