Please submit, in comments below, your nominations for the best new history blog (created since 1 December 2004). [registration not required, but the usual rules of civility and conduct still apply] Nominations will be accepted from November 1st through 30th.

I was blogging over at 50th Star prior to your cut-off date. But The Dougout is not even a month old yet.

Deserves two awards, because it's just that good. If any other blog can match BibliOdyssey's regular delivery of PRIMARY SOURCE cornucopiae, please post a link in a follow-up comment.

Scott Eric Kaufman of Acephalous (http://acephalous.typepad.com/)

More of a literary historian like the Little Professor, but still worthy of nomination.

Beautiful and informative too.

Started 11/Dec/2004. Not an out and out history blog, but there's plenty of historical interest on it. See the left hand bar for a list of WWII and Holocaust posts. An excellent example of the wide variety of people who history blog.
