The reviews of Bruce’s lectures are in:  “In the past five years, Mr. Kauffmann has presented informative, stimulating and entertaining talks on topics ranging from Alexander Hamilton to Adolf Hitler, and he is always well received. As you may know from his weekly history column, his research is solid, his perspective superb and he has a way of bringing the subject to a surprising conclusion. Following the lecture, we allow for 10-15 minutes for Q and A, and he’s always prepared to offer further insight and detail about his subject.  Our members have never been disappointed.“  - Murray, Schulman, Director, the William A. Keese School of Continuing Education, Gaithersburg, Md.
