Resources

This list of web resources for Gilded Age and Progressive Era history is manifestly very incomplete. It is very much intended to be under constant revision as digital resources themselves appear, transform, and disappear.

Below you will find a list of public links to period material that members have evaluated positively for classroom and other use.

Please contact the website editor at jconnoll@bsu.edu with tips for additions as well as comments and suggestions for revision. Please also notify us about broken links.
