The Texas State Historical Association (TSHA) has created a number of very fine online resources over the past few years, including The Handbook of Texas Online. Recently, they placed the first fifty years of the esteemed Southwestern Historical Quarterly online right here, and those with a passion for history will not be disappointed. Visitors can search the archive, which includes every issue of the Quarterly from July 1897 to April 1947. More casual users may just want to browse the contents by author, title, date, or volume. Looking over the many years, historians will appreciate the developments within the field of academic history, and even changes in tone and viewpoint are evident over the decades. Overall, it's a great resource, and one that will merit several return visits.
