HBooks provides metadata and commentary for some 2700 articles and book reviews in nineteen periodicals. The site demonstrates how a variety of periodicals – popular magazines, heavy intellectual reviews, journals for and about children – helped create and maintain the historical culture of the period. It guides users to articles in the full-text online databases available through most academic libraries.
