I agree Jon. I think what Terry Jones mainly aims for in his historical writings/films, is to make history more interesting and exciting for people who normally dont read or watch it. It's true he can get opinionated sometimes, but that just adds to me (a non-scholar and one who's never studied it past post-secondary school) wanting to read more about the subject. Oh. if you haven't seen it yet, watch Terry Jones' Crusades. It's a lot of fun.
