Sources

The books, records and plans this project reads from, in one place. Each place on the map is checked against them, and each link goes to the open copy.

In the library 12

These volumes are held in the project's research library, where they can be searched page by page. Only open sources are listed, and only their details: the text stays in the library. The list is rebuilt whenever something is added. The sources cited for individual claims are the references on the start page and the method page.
