History's Last Stand

History is under siege. In History’s Last Stand, Michael Bird brings leading historians into lively, accessible conversations about the people, events and ideas that shaped our world. From ancient empires, biblical and Church history, Rome, the Crusades and the Reformation to revolutions, wars and modern history, the series asks what really happened, why it matters and how the past still shapes the present.

Michael Bird is an Australian theologian, historian and author based at Ridley College in Melbourne. Premier audiences will already know him as the co-host of Ask NT Wright Anything podcast with Tom Wright.
