    January Historical Events

    Often we think that historically, not much has happened in the middle of winter. However, that's far from the truth. From Charlemagne to Henry VIII, Secession in the Civil War to the Soviets battling the Finns in the snow during WWII, there has been a lot of historical heat generated in January over the centuries.

Fabulous!

I'm doing research on the Fall of New Orleans. "History with Mark Bielski" had exactly what I needed, plus it was really entertaining. Mark has got a great way about him that makes listening to his stories easy on the ear. I highly recommend this podcast.

I’ve listened to all Mark’s lectures and looking forward to more.
