Thanks for your feedback. I apologize for the slow reply; I’ve been out of town without internet access for several days.

I recorded all the series lectures using the Camtasia screen-casting software with the PIP (picture in a picture) option to video myself. The software is a little pricey, but with an academic discount you can get it for less than $200. There may be more cost-effective options out there.

As for Russia since 1861, I have done a little searching on Youtube myself for materials that would help supplement my Modern Europe course without discovering anything great. You can find some interesting documentaries about specific events or rulers, though.
