Greetings to all of my medieval history lovers!
I know its annoying to get emails for frivolous reasons so I only push out a post when I have something exceptional for you.
Today, something different. Extra.
I have collaborated with a very good history youtuber to write the script on a video about the Italian Normans.
This is not a normal youtube history video. I wanted to do something different. Many youtube history videos are just an abridged summary of events, touching on key people or places. Instead, in this video, I dove deep into anecdotes of the various Normans and provided some extra analysis of the times they lived in.. what made them special.
You can click here to watch the video (it’s on youtube, so of course its free) and if you have any questions or comments, even constructive criticism, I am happy to hear it. I will be collaborating with Empire Builders on a followup, a 4th video in his Norman series, on crusading Normans. So you can look forward to another (hopefully epic) followup!
Enjoy!
That photo looks an awful lot like Jean Renaud in “Les Visiteurs” as Le Chavalier de Montmiraille.
