People Research- U.S. History

I am researching Henry Ford for this assignment.  I need to find accurate, reliable resources and start reading. What information can I find using the online resources and the electronic catalog of materials available in the Media Center?

From this electronic encyclopedia I can quickly learn about my person and begin to organize my information. 

I need to make a list of all the resources I use, called a Bibliography, and these online sources make it really easy.
