  • The key battles podcast It's perfect for people like me that have some understanding of history but want to learn more of the details and turning points created the world we live in today. The Greek Turkish war following world war was fascinating. It explained a lot about the ongoing conflicts between Greeks and Turks. Highly recommended!

  • Good round-up of WW1

    You can get a sense of how it happened, what was going on at times, the German stalemate with attempted breakthroughs, the end-game. I liked it and liked his Eizenstat interview as well. I hope he will continue.
