You were asked – TMP link

To what extent have historians Will and Ariel Durant shaped your views on history? From 1 (Who?) to 10 (their world view is one I share completely).

Average result: 2.01

Heard of them. Never read them.

If you want to get into the time and personalities in a period it's a good way to find out, not for the timid at 600-800 pages. Pulled out Age of Reason to look at the 30 years war period but haven't got into it much.

Same as John, I have heard of them only in passing.
