From Canada! Found your channel from looking into fur trade history, reading Hudson's bay company journals online. Smattering of archeological papers of precontact great lakes sites. I'm really enjoying your early colonial videos.

Thank you! You have a beautiful country. I was born in Michigan, so I am a Great Lakes person at heart, too.

What very cool is older graveyards that are all over an area, many by RR- tracks. When area was new. There was just a small road! Follow the water and the RR-tracks. These are the very first roads! Old Hempstead Rd. When that graveyard was established, it was considered way out there. Before the road it was a path for wagons.

Great! most cities the first roads uses are by the water, this can go back 1000 years. Houston and Louisiana! What's cool is a brick fence post going back over 200 years or a home. Many streets call market roads.

Thank you for an interesting review that rekindled by love of large high quality historical atlases. I’ve just placed a large order with Amazon 👍😊

As someone who is just discovering an interest in History, This is a fantastic video. I know there are tons of books on world history and that is the problem. There are tons of books. No one has time to read all of them. So having someone tell me what can be learned in a few of them helps me narrow down the books that interest me. Using the internet is fine, but it just does not give the information I am looking for. Thank for sharing.

Thank you. These atlases are great. I still learn from books I've had for twenty years, because there is so much information.

Jeffrey, I loved the French & Indian War episode. What are your favorite publications related to this period? Thank you!

Great question. The most recent authority on this period is Fred Anderson. He has a giant one called, "Crucible of War," and an abridged version called "The War that Made America."

@Jeffrey the Librarian I just ordered that one as well. Thank you for the recommendations!

Could it be possible to present an episode on the '1783 Treaty of Paris' with emphasis on the agreed upon border, section by section, of the new USA. Great stuff, Thanks.

Thanks!

Book publishers are so litigious that they prevent book owners from showing others the contents of the book?

It's the "no part of this work can be reproduced without the express written permission" clause that they usually include.

Just ordered a used copy of past worlds for 5 bucks
