Kraut seems to have a reputation among some of my audience as "left-wing" and a reputable educator on history. I have a distinctly different impression. While his content is far and above better than any of the incredibly dishonest stuff I've covered as of lately, his treatment of history is still problematic, and coloured by, and an effort of espousing his centre-right politics.
We're all influenced by our convictions, views and ideals, and no historical narrative is ever truly objective, however, the manner in which he works with sources and approaches history means I believe he barely even tries to achieve any semblance of objectivity. However nebulously defined or unattainable that admirable ideal is in reality when dealing with history, an attempt should always be made and the attempt is made through transparency, method and proper source work.
