“This Merriman character is a poster boy for anyone wanting to discredit the quality of the Yale history department. I have tried, believe me I've tried, to listen to these lectures, but it's simply nauseating. It's anecdotal at best ... nothing of substance here. The most damning comment I can think of is Merriman's attempts to impress his students with his fluency in all things French. Oh yes, everything seems to be related to where he claims to have an apartment in Paris, or a house in the country, and his feeble attempts to sound fluent in the language of Molière. This guy is a fake, a waste of time, and a discredit to an otherwise noble institution.”
