DC3AmsterdamEnjoyable and informativeI found this podcast at the recommendation of the he host the Victorian History Podcast and have enjoyed the first 10 installments very much. I’ve found the style of presentation / storytelling relaxing with lots of information wrapped into a story that includes the context giving a great mental picture of life at the time. I’m looking forward to catching up on all the installments in the library.
