Both efforts are welcome but hardly satisfy the researcher's need for journal literature online. Scholarly societies and commercial publishers continue to experiment with delivery mechanisms and pricing structures for electronic journals, but one of the first projects is already a winner. Titles available through Project MUSE include American Jewish History, American Quarterly, Eighteenth Century Studies, and, especially useful in an online format, Reviews in American History. JHU Press is to be praised for their pleasant, easy to navigate interface as well as the reasonable pricing for Project MUSE subscriptions, with campus-wide or single titles subscriptions available and deep discounts for those institutions choosing to receive both print and electronic formats. Not every institution has access to Reviews in American History via Project MUSE, but other reviewing sources are available on the Web.
Reviews are searchable by author, book title, reviewer, H-list, and subject.
History Reviews Online includes many review essays of Internet resources as well as books.
