Hanover Historical Texts Project
Hanover Historical Texts Project
In 1995, the History Department and Hanover students initiated the Hanover Historical
Texts Project. The Project's principal aim is to make primary texts readily available
to students and faculty for use in history and humanities courses.
The texts scanned for the project are all in public domain. The electronic
forms of the texts created by the HHTP are under copyright. Permission to copy
and use the texts is granted for educational purposes. We ask that you acknowledge
the Hanover Historical Texts Project. Permission is not granted for commercial
uses.
Bibliographical information and acknowledgements for scanning, conversion
into html, and proofreading are found at the beginning of each text. Page numbers
appear in parentheses at the point of the page breaks in the original texts.
