Excellent short summary

I enjoyed this concise summary. Very interesting. Looking forward to seeing related sights in Rome, and to listening to more about related history. Well-read by narrator.

Poorly Done Class Notes

Narrator was fine, better than a computer. The work was if a C student put together a set of badly wrote notes and read them out loud. No balance and the places the focus on the wrong parts.
