- Why all the haters?
To all the people writing bad reviews google search John Merriman and see his exhaustive research in the textbooks of European History, and then go try to get your books published. I enjoy his folksy, informed delivery. He can’t spoon feed all of European history in a hour lecture. He gives the general arc, and expects you to read the dang book for all the details. May his memory be for a blessing.

United Statesa year ago - Leftist Bias
I listened to the whole thing. Some good information about the era, but clearly tainted by his biases without an attempt at providing alternative perspectives. He spends almost an entire lecture fawning over an anarchist terrorist, and constantly makes quips about how this or that member of the aristocracy was terrible or a bad person. Admits fantasizing about killing a guy who asked a question about what to do about Jews.
Avoid.

What a self-absorbed professor, negligent in delivery of an expensive education.
