Dan Carlin’s latest Hardcore History, episode 60, about The Celtic Holocaust, is self-recommending, as Tyler Cowen would say.
While listening, I thought, wouldn’t it be great if there were a beautifully illustrated and annotated Landmark Gallic Wars, like the Landmark Thucydides I picked up a few months back? Well, it turns out that a Landmark Julius Caesar is on its way. Go ahead and preorder it now. You deserve it.
I’ve plowed through every episode of Hardcore History, up until this, and wish there were still more. The guy does a great job. His other podcast, “Common Sense”, can be good but, like most other commenters on current events, the Trump era has him flailing at empty air.
