The Dutch Revolt, 1563–1609
A complete audio course on the Dutch Revolt for the Edexcel A-level depth study (Paper 2B.2, c1563–1609): from Philip II's inheritance and the failed schemes of the 1560s, through Alva, Requesens and the events of 1572, to Parma's reconquest, Maurice of Nassau, and the Twelve Years' Truce. Narrative episodes follow the specification in order; bonus episodes weigh the effectiveness of William of Orange and the Duke of Parma; the final episode asks why the revolt matters at all. Made by an A-level student who couldn't find a single podcast on this option - so recorded one.
