I am looking for maps on the Internet for a school project. (I am also searching for my self, and will go to the library for some atlases as soon as the nurses office opens and I can get my meds) Specifically:
Europe in 1492 (Major nations/capitols/boundaries)
Major Native American cultures (pre-settlement)
Areas claimed/colonized by Europe by 1650
British colonies, claims, and grants by 1740
Areas of conflict and major battles of the French and Indian War
English/French territory after the Treaty of Paris 1763
Major Campaigns of the American Revolution
Territorial expansion up to 1828
Help with any of these will be greatly appreciated.

The University of Texas has a pretty good collection of on-line maps:
