Internet Modern History Sourcebook: Modern History in the Movies

  • list of movies.  The Internet Modern History Sourcebook now contains thousands of sources and the previous index pages were so large that they were crashing many browsers.

  • The Internet Modern History Sourcebook is one of series of history primary sourcebooks. It is intended to serve the needs of teachers and students in college survey courses in modern European history and American history, as well as in  modern Western Civilization and World Cultures. Although this part of the Internet History Sourcebooks Project began as a way to access texts that were already available on the Internet, it now contains hundreds of texts made available locally.

    The great diversity of available sources for use in modern history classes requires that selections be made with great care - since virtually unlimited material is available.
