Napoleon to World War I

I listened to two particularly interesting podcasts that can be found at this address; http://bingethinkinghistory.blogspot.com/. The two that jumped out to me were one on Napoleon and another on the decline of the British Empire that was sealed around World War I. They did cover some broad terms on both of these subjects, but they were able to compress wide ranges of history down to about an hour which made for some very interesting listening, and it was actually quite affective. It's like asking yourself, okay, I have to cover the history of the United States in an hour, what points do you cover? They do this very well, and almost seamlessly, covering only the most important points. For example, one of the podcasts was on Napoleon's reign up until steam power. Lots to cover there, and they did it in under an hour touching on only the most important events. The other podcast was on the decline of the British Empire from the American Revolution to World War I, another far-reaching era of history that they were able to cover in under an hour. I will definitely be back to this website, as I liked the format, and how they covered the topics they did.
