We're pleased to announce that revisions to this site have been carried out in conjunction with an American Literature course held in the summer of 1996. This site and the work from the summer have been compiled at the Resources For American Literature page.

You can also browse through the original site below, which was developed by students during the Spring of 1995. It is overseen by Daniel Anderson, the instructor, and by the members of the various classes.

Feel free to add your thoughts to our message forum or to get in touch.
