5.00Lonnie took us way back to the time in a way much better than any history teacher I ever had. This wasn't just a bunch of names and dates, but a 'story'. Seeing the restorations, the people in costume, and hearing the events of the day really made one feel like you were there, and understood the role of the time, place, and events in history.
Excellent - highly recommend
