Kundenrezensionen
Exceptional blend of scholarship and humour
Mike Duncan offers a unique blend of serious scholarship, deft humour, and a love for the themes linking the various revolutions explored in his podcast. Well-recommended for newcomers to these stories, or to History majors (such as myself) rediscovering these historical topics some years after graduation.
Great stuff
I know Mike Duncan from his "History of Rome" podcasts - this podcast is no worse, it is highly recommendable, and grat fun to listen to! Most of the things I know about the history of Haiti come from this podcast, and that is already something. Just great stuff.
A great start to what should be a fascinating series
Highly recommended. I began listening to the History of Rome in 2007 because I was looking for Roman history content. It was such an amazing series that I'll now listen to any podcast Mike Duncan produces, regardless of whether I have any previous knowledge/interest in the topic. Unlike Rome, I don't have any knowledge of the English Revolution (the first one he is covering in this series), but the first two episodes have been fascinating. I'm now quite intrigued by this period and looking forward to seeing how it progresses and ends. For the series as a whole, I'm eagerly awaiting Mike's podcasts about both the revolutions that I have already studied (Russia/China/Cuba) and the ones that I haven't.
