This is a random collection of links to things that might be of use.
They're files and web pages I found in a folder on the hard drive, and I tracked down the (often new) location on the web. Some, like the tables of army pay c.1800, have disappeared altogether. Some, like Secrets of Lockpicking might exist but not on sites that I'd risk going to. This is why I saved them originally, in case they disappeared. I think in all cases, it's worth looking over the sites to see what else they have.
