The original presentation is a powerpoint, so the words and graphics are slightly messed up because of the conversion to a video (a PPT cannot be uploader to Blogger). It can be best read in the small version without making it full screen.

Royal forces started to surround La Rochelle, with an army of 7,000 soldiers, 600 horses and 24 cannons, led by Charles of Angouleme. They started to reinforce fortifications at Bongraine (modern Les Minimes), and at the Fort Louis. On September 10, the first cannons shots were by La Rochelle against Royal troops at Fort Louis, starting the third Huguenot rebellion. La Rochelle was the greatest stronghold among the Huguenot cities of France, and the centre of Huguenot resistance.

Updated grade. There are still some things you could do to improve. For example: in the section on "Important Leaders", give each leader their own slide with a portrait and bullets. I find that having a face to stick a name to often helps me remember people and what they have done.
ReplyDeleteLater in the section on "Architecture", it would be a really good idea to define your terms -- such as "Gothic". Many folks in your audience may not understand what these terms mean.
