Local and regional history encyclopedias

Last post I showed you a link to my latest article in the online Encyclopedia of Arkansas History and Culture.  That got me thinking about what kinds of similar resources are out there for other areas, where my friends and family live. Each varies in its approach to local history and culture, but they all are interesting and useful resources.

So, here’s my list:


Encyclopedia of Chicago
The Illinois History Resource Page
Tennessee Encyclopedia of History and Culture
The Handbook of Texas Online
