The http://www.ronaldreaganweb.com web site predominately features a comprehensive bibliography on Ronald Reagan and the 1980s which includes a complete listing of books, a comprehensive list of periodical articles and also features links to primary sources and web sites. The site also includes additional extensive bibliographies on The Sixties: A Journey through Politics and Culture, the American Presidency, and Modern U.S. history since 1865.
