Presenting the 7-part Hillsdale College course titled "The Second World Wars."
Unlike as has been the case up until now, there will be no "Q&A" for any of the presentations in this series. Rather, there will be only lectures.
"Lecture 1, "Introduction, and the Stakes of World War 2," is given by Larry P. Arnn, President and Professor of History and Politics, Hillsdale College. The remaining six lectures are given by Victor Davis Hanson, the Wayne and Marcia Buske Distinguished Fellow in History at Hillsdale College. Professor Hanson is also a senior fellow at the Hoover Institution. He earned his B.A. at the University of California, Santa Cruz, and his Ph.D. in classics from Stanford University.
Each of Professor Hanson's lectures will focus on a singular-yet-different aspect to World War Two.
Carpe diem!

Hillsdale College (https://www.Hillsdale.edu) has many online courses available for free to all. Most of these courses are on a 10-week schedule; that is, one lecture/Q&A per week for 10 weeks. I plan on making these available on that same one-per-week schedule, regardless the overall number of weeks involved in a given course (5, 10, 11...whatever). Most of the courses involve a "Lecture" and a "Q&A." Some, however, may have an "Introduction" (or something similarly titled) in addition to only a Lecture or a Lecture and Q&A. Whatever video content is available for that week will be posted at the same time, if I have it all (which, at this time, I do).
Considering how easy it is to participate in these free-to-watch courses via the Hillsdale website, I encourage visitors here to consider that. For those who, for whatever reason, would rather view this content elsewhere, I am making them available here. (I believe there is no copyright issue, but I make no guarantees that the content will always be available here. Another reason, perhaps, to consider following the coursework via the Hillsdale website.)
At present I have available approximately 16 courses, most of which are on a 10-week schedule. At the first posting for a new course, I will endeavor to properly indicate the number of weeks for that particular course. There are more than two dozen courses available from Hillsdale, but I have chosen only these. (Note that this number will likely grow, as Hillsdale continues to add courses.)
Videos should be viewable starting between 0000UTC and 0600UTC on Fridays.
Although founded in America in 1844, Hillsdale College's message is, I believe, relevant to all people everywhere. However, the overwhelming majority of the coursework focuses on America's heritage, Constitution, overall form and workings of government, and God.
