Welcome to the NEW eHistory! The Department of History at The Ohio State University is proud to be the new home of eHistory. All of its wonderful historical resources are still on the site for you to use, so please keep your links active. Weve redesigned the site in an effort to better serve you and to better reflect the academic nature of the university with an emphasis on research, teaching and outreach. The first step was a transition to a new server environment and the removal of the banner ads and store; the next step was a complete redesign of the content. We appreciate your patience as we work towards the full vision that is the new eHistory at The Ohio State. Will the old material still be available? Absolutely. We will be using the best of the existing material and adding to it, but the contents of the old site will still be available. Will you still have memberships? Yes! Our apologies for the hiatus, but we are offering memberships again (please click here to sign up). We moved most of the old member accounts to the new database, so please try your old account before signing up for a new one. Membership will let you contibute content (like eReviews) and post comments as part of the eHistory community. Be assured that we are committed to keeping the site free and available to the millions of users who have come to eHistory for all things historical. The Department of History extends its deep appreciation to Scott Laidig and the entire eHistory.com team for entrusting us with the site!
