By the end, I was won over
This course covers the history of political attitudes and sentiment around the civil war. its not ken burns (burns doc is assigned material). i was a bit put off by the depressive funerary tone of the lecturer. he seemed overly austeer and seemed to be treading lightly around the subject... but this is the only iUniversity lecture ive heard where the speaker is interuppted by a heckler. and in this case it was a racist heckler. which amazed me! (ive listened to like 70 complete courses while walking the dog over the past few years).... wow. ok, point taken. by the end, i was able to appreciate the class for what it is rather than what i wanted it to be. profound. well worth your time...

More reviews of The Civil War and Reconstruction Era, 1845-1877
Each lecture left me wanting to hear more. Blight's reflections on the past force us to think about our present realities and human nature.

He is the best and most enrapturing speaker I've found on iTunes U. Every lecture feels like a TED talk.
