This is great lecturing. Engaging and spontaneous, without being confusing. And informative to boot.

I wish a reading list was posted. I recommend to anyone watching, the hardcore history podcast on ww1 called Apocalypse. Use to be free 5$ now, I listen to it often it is overall one of the best lectures on the war.

Not easy to maintain your audience's attention for this sort of period of time with this sort of difficult material. Prof Weiner has a great gift for lecturing. If only we could bottle it.

I agree. WW1 still has effects on todays world. Am from Africa and my very existance is related to it as when Belgian Congo went to fight Germans in East Africa, part of the german territory in East Africa was under occupation in 1916 and then was removed and attached to Belgian Congo in 1919 (Versailles treaty)hence my grand father moving in later on in 1942 as a Congo Belgian soldier. This move lead to settling in Burundi and thus me coming to be. Even more important, the current Congo war is a direct result of border drawing between Rwanda and Congo and these borders are a result of WW1. If that partition didn t happen, Rwanda would have never existed as a country and this would have never generated the wars we have seen both in Rwanda and Burundi as well as Congo today

Weiner is the man. I only wish that I took more classes with him when I was a student at Lafayette.
