Lecture Movies for Sale - Rest of World
We have received numerous requests over the years, from those who have attended our lectures, to have access to our lectures so that they may share with their friends and family. Helena is a Geologist so does tend to favor the more science related subjects, however, Chris is more of a history and travel buff, so we combine our knowledge to make an enriching and entertaining experience.
All of our lectures are presented as PowerPoint movies. Note that the accompanying audio contains much more information than does just the text displayed on the screen. While on the subject of audio please excuse the electronic voice on many of the presentations, it was the easiest way to add audio to our presentations to include on this website. We are of course available to give lectures in person for a small fee plus expenses.
