There are MANY history-related websites. Finding them is easy - the hard part is sorting through the information and verifying its accuracy. Much of our knowledge has been lost over time, and many surviving sources conflict with each other.

In this modern age, the Internet gives us access to information from other countries. You may notice that sites based in other countries (like Britain, Germany, China, Russia, Moslem countries, etc.) may have different information than US sites have available. Sometimes their information is better than ours, sometimes it's not.

TAL's History Links is only a list of the best history websites that I've found during my research. My list is by no means the most comprehensive; there are already websites that database all the history links they find. They have a lot of information, if you have time to dig through all of it. Hopefully my list will save you some time...
