Really dense and enjoyable

As the kind of person who likes to listen to lectures, and The History Channel in the background all day, this was a very welcome companion in my ears walking around the last few days. You can dip in and out or sit and soak it all up. Great narrator, by the way. It's filled with tidbits, and it's surprisingly easy to follow for such a dense work. I really likes it.
