Chris has re-ignited my history flame by informative talks about the War of the Roses. He is marvellous!
I am in awe of Chris's knowledge on such an involved and convoluted subject. All six of these talks have been mesmerising, informative and incredibly interesting. His delivery and recap of important points is so helpful that my knowledge of this subject has been greatly expanded. Thank you, once again, Chris for a remarkably coherent delivery of this period in our history.
What a complicated time in history! Chris Green delivered a fascinating talk, unravelling the, oh so many, threads that brought us to Richard the 3rd’s demise. Entertaining and informative - Chris is a great example of how history should be taught.
