Hey James!
Here’s an obvious suggestion:
Please link all those other WW1 videos you produce to your main WW1 page
https://www.corbettreport.com/wwi/
I’d prefer a section like “Also of interest” and then a list of linked videos at the bottom of the page, perhaps even with a single link (“Related videos”, right before the transcript) from the top leading down to this section.
This would benefit viewers of this brilliant documentary immensely, I think (and I would also only have to make one link into my database ;))

Immediate takeaway: Gerry Docherty is an incredibly wise man; this interview is an incredible gem. I read “Hidden History” after James mentioned it a year or so ago. It wove a coherently truthful story out of all the disparate, murky inklings I had had concerning the facts and players behind WWI. Whether you encounter this information in book or video format, each medium has inherent limitations on how and to whom it may communicate. James’ documentary brilliantly expands the audience for this subject by giving us a succinct overview and visceral inside view (credit: Brock West’s superb video editing) of what went on behind the curtains of this watershed event.
fire,
You communicate very well.
If James’s documentary was offered on Amazon by a publisher, your review would be tops.

Merci beaucoup.
Bon d’accord…le compliment de HRS est mérité. Vous écrivez plutôt bien. Mais on peut pas gagner The Corbett Report Headline Contest deux années de suite!
si?
🙂
What a beautiful language ya’ll!
It sure beats a Joe Bob Briggs’ Texan drawl.
I guess we will see what happens next year.
Thanks to the “blocus” at the university today and to the devoted strikers protesting against the “Parcoursup” “privatisation” of French University (quickly explained in a post on the “Mais non! People vs Paris” page), and as I’m personally devoid of any social integrity,
I finally had the time to listen carefully to this seminal interview.
But I have to admit that, amid so much fascinating information, the moment that really struck me, that hit home, though not with any surprise, was just after 1 hour and 25 minutes where Mr Docherty was explaining that he’d received messages from would-be scholars who’d been informed that they couldn’t use his books as source material
even though they’d been built from ARCHIVE PAPERS, CABINET DOCUMENTS, LIBRARY OF CONGRESS ETC…
This is perfectly and eminently emblematic of how “we the people” are helping to bring about our own demise in the name of “credibility” and careerism, allowing ourselves to be intellectually corraled which is just lazy, conformist and cowardly thinking.
The sort of authoritative bullying à la Chomsky that effectively keeps people in ignorance…I VOMIT these bullies and the way folks allow themselves to be fooled and formatted by them!!
but I LOVE Mr Docherty’s accent! As gorgeous as his courage and determination!
Too much freaking information.
Take away… buy and read Hidden history and Prolonging the agony.
They will revolutionize your understanding of ww1 and thus everything thats happened this century.
Best of all their so well writian that its easy to absorb the information
I very much enjoued this interview however the way Mr. Docherty describes the way Serbia must have had something to do with funding of conspirators and money exchanging hands , Russians financing everything makes me sad . As a historian Mr. Docherty should have some documents , something more than his feeling about those matters to make such claims . I find it quite disrespectful towards Serbia and Serbs . Serbia has lost 1.247.435 of people during WW1 which is ~28% of it’s population . Serbia lost ~62% of it’s male population age 18-55 and never recovered. No other nation lost that much of it’s population .
