Note:
This list of links is by no means comprehensive, and it is certainly
influenced by my own interests (i.e. the section on the history of
Berlin). Use it as a starting point for browsing on historical subjects
and writing techniques. I will add more sites as I find them. Let
me know if you find anything interesting.
