The global internet is widening the urban perspective,
and H-Urban offers these web links as additional tools
for urban history and urban studies.

H-Urban Web Editor David Nichols (Deakin University) reviews and annotates each link before it is included in H-Urban Web Links. Links to websites related to urban history or urban studies are sorted into these indexed lists to facilitate finding the appropriate information. All links are listed alphabetically in the By Title index. For further ease, links may appear alphabetically by title in one or more of the Subject or Source or Location lists:

Throughout the Web Links website, several naviagtional aids are available to visually assist users:
