      I remember great lectures I had from a history teacher back in my university in the 1980s. One semester. That's it. He was very old.
      This is every bit as good, and there's many hours of content.
      The Crusades are fascinating. Great job!

    Great lecture video! Can I ask where are you from? You know what really gets me is that in the UK pupils are not taught this kind of history! They will be taught about the industrial revolution which is all good but I think more people would be interested in this kind of history teaching

    I once heard that Peter the Hermits's gangly brown robe later walked itself down to Jericho or Arimethia (and then back again). Of course, Peter was in Constantinople seeking more supplies.

    There is so much nonsense about “the crusades” floating around. Thank you for speaking the truth according to the sources.
