World War 1

I thoght Simon Gregor's ceminar on World War 1 was wonderful even though I had to miss part of it as Zoom knocked me off. I shall watch the recording and then the pictures will be the right size and I won't be so disturbed by the fact that Zoom ruined the live presentation

Valuable Historical Background Before Travel To Stirling

It truly was a treasure trove - An old building is just a building until you know what happened in it. Beth is a wonderful presenter who gave us so much valuable information.

Outstanding Presentation

Dr. Campbell presented an outstanding analysis of the multiple and complex factors that led to Japan’s invasion of Pearl Harbor. It is an important contribution for those who are interested in Japanese history and culture. This presentation is particularly powerful. with Dr. Campbell’s many photo’s and video’s of that historic period.

Spotlight on Anselm Kiefer: Confronting Germany's Past with Dr. Alison Bracker
Another great presentation by Dr. Gavin Campbell

Great amount of information with chronology easy to follow. But as always there is subtle "entertainment. I would sign up for any of his presentations: information, well-put together ina fashion that keeps you interested. AND...obviously, he loves the subject and therefore has spent much time putting it together for us and for himself.
