Thanks for sharing your reads and best wishes for the new year. Can I just suggest/request, be careful hitting the table with your hands as the sound is quite pronounced when listening with headphones and it makes things difficult to hear. Keep up the great work

On the Steam book (#2), it would be more accurate to say that European hegemony began with the invention of the most advanced version of the rotary steam engine by Boulton and Watt and Pickard in the 1780s, which made manufacturing much more productive.

I have just discovered your channel. Thank you for such an intelligent introduction to five books that I did not know about, even though I consider myself a fairly serious history buff. This is so much better than 'BookTube'! It looks like I'll have to buy the lot, alas.

Milord Algorithm suggested this video today, and I’m so glad! I love hearing people talk about changing their mind, and all of the books here I haven’t already read sound great.

Thanks for the recommendations! I would suggest that you find a way to isolate your microphone, as the low frequency booming is very distracting.

I just had to check the numbers, and according to Wikepedia, the Mongol Death toll was estimated at between 37.7 and 60 million, equating to around 11% of the World population. That's depopulation on a biblical scale. There's a great Russian film The Horde (2012) which really evokes the era.

Nice to see WWII being extended to earlier years, but really, the end of WWII should not be dated until the end of the Chinese Civil War. 1948 I think. After that when the Americans “lost China” the Korean War was started. Since that American defeat China has been able to develop according their own agenda.

The stars delightfully acknowledge that you d-j for their unresponsive crowd. Thou art alike the people of the past, whose golden records in their heart resolved. In lovely disbelonging we all spawned; a misfit race adopted by the Earth. Voyager 1 transponds a Beatles’ song, or maybe humanity’s final words. The ruling class believe they’ve bought the stars, and keep our freedom from the stars withheld. How could paychecks be what reprieves our hearts? when freedom always was within ourselves. The rich have bought nothing, not you or me. Thy heart transcends the dollar bill; you’re free I am Nicholas Leonard, and this is a sonnet tht I wrote.

Typical. Just a glance at the Richard Overy book reviews and we have instant dichotomy, including this, '...his core argument is that the war was not primarily a war against the evils of the Axis powers but rather was fought by the major participants to preserve and/or expand their “empires.” Typical.

@@richarddelanet I simply didnt understand what you meant and asked if you could explain it. Maybe the "snobbish" tone comes from the fact that I am not a native speaker. It wasnt meant that way.
