Atomic Bomb in WWII

I have multiple requests for this topic and found some websites that have amazing amounts of information.
Take a look at:

National Security Archive site with links to primary documents: http://www.gwu.edu/~nsarchiv/NSAEBB/NSAEBB162/index.htm
  
Info from the Truman Library:

Yale's Avalon Document Collection:

Manhatten Project Interactive History from the US Dept of Energy:

Nuclear Files Documents

I will also pass a list of books on to Mr. Aleckson.  We do have a large collection of resources on this topic - both in the regular collection and in government documents.

Civil War Draft Riot in Port Washington

I did some searching and found some articles in journals from our collection.  I'll send copies to DCE.  I didn't find much in our book collection.  Actually, I found a lot of information on the Wisconsin Historical Society website.  There is an article in the online Wisconsin Magazine of History, March 1919, p. 334 that you might want to look at.
