 | | The original Thomas Bros. Maps was founded in 1915 in Oakland by surveyor George Coupland Thomas and his brothers, Louis and Gilbert, whose bound, grid-style maps became a fixture in California cars as the state grew rapidly during the last century. | | | Peter Nolan, a managing partner at Leonard Green, called the 147-year-old mapmaker, which is also publisher of Thomas Bros. guides, an ideal match for his firm. | | | Nolan identified it as the fastest-growing component of Rand McNally's business, accounting for one-fourth of the company's annual sales. |

| | Comprehensive List of Anthropological Sources on the WWW |
| | The summaries of creation myths are written in a generic style, so they are best used as introductory information rather than as fully authentic representations of the cultures from which they’re derived. | | | This ambitious project is the first, and currently only, culture/settlement inventory of an entire country on the Internet. | | | Housed at Montana State University, this particular online collection was designed to provide students, researchers, and the general public with direct access to valuable primary source material on Plains Indian cultures. |

| | Style guides used by universities are particularly rigorous in their preferred style for citing sources. | | | Two of the most widely used style guides in the United States are The Chicago Manual of Style and the Associated Press stylebook. | | | Style guides don’t directly address writers’ individual style, or “voice,” although writers sometimes say style guides are too restrictive. |
