Comment:

First off, what's up with obsession with Saint Simon and Clemenceau? Oh, and the chicks dig the socks and sandals, Mrs. Thorpe should seriously consider letting him become a Mall Santa. His age is starting to get the better of him, especially when he forgets the fact that he needs to change slides as he changes topics! Overall, good guy, cool bike.

Comment:

An incredibly intelligent and witty lecturer with a great passion for his work. A bit of a tough marker (you have to earn marks in his class), but he is very approachable and has a real love for social history that I find refereshing.

Comment:

The French Revolutionary Era is NOT a class about the French Revolution. Once that is cleared up, I suppose it was interesting, but I found the information unfocused, and his reliance on various historians on the final unnecessary.
