The goal of the project is to produce an updated, expanded, and thoroughly revised edition in print and electronic formats of various historical statistics of the United States, to be collected from the Historical Statistics of the United States, Millennial Edition, Colonial Times to The Present (Cambridge University Press). The Historical Statistics of the United States was first published in 1949 by the Bureau of the Census with the advice and assistance of the Social Science Research Council. A second and much larger edition appeared in 1960 under the same auspices. The third edition, Historical Statistics of the United States, Colonial Times to 1970, Bicentennial Edition, was published by the Bureau in 1975 and was expanded to two volumes. In the year 2005 Cambridge University Press will publish the fourth, millennial, edition of this classic reference work. This has been added to Reference Resources Subject Tracer™ Information Blog.
