Masterpiece Theatre's Educators' Site

I stumbled across the Masterpiece Theatre's American Collection Educators' Site while looking for something else (gotta love the Internet), and at first glance it looks pretty interesting. In addition to the Literary Timeline, check out the U.S. Literary Map Project - it has reports on authors written by middle school and high school students. See also the American Literature Resources page. There are quite a few links, such as to author websites.
