ties things together

being reasonably local I've studied various aspects of York's history for most of my adult life, from visiting the Coppergate excavations on a school trip to taking part in the regular Leeds food history symposia and various other events. mostly this history tends to be presented in period or subject specific formats, so this was a great overview to look at the progression of history in the city.

The narrator has a good voice but I've marked four stars overall for the various technical glitches in the sound recording, which has a few fade outs and small repeats
