Wish List

We're always looking for more readings for History Is A Weapon. We are putting together several new features for the website that are going to be, all humility in check, awesome. We're going to try and keep this page up to date with readings we would love to get copies of, preferably as high quality scans or simple text. If you come across any of these in your travels, or have some time and a library on your hands, we'd love some help.
Please note that links to Google Books for readings is not helpful as we may need to manipulate the text (form, not content) to format it for the project. So if you type it up from Google Books, fine, but don't just send us a link to that.

Here is the list. Preferred format is in parentheses.
