Put in a tiny amount of work, you're going to be fine, always available outside the classroom, really does make an effort to get to know the students and their interests.

Prof. Craig is amazing, but his class wasn't so good. His lectures are boring, but you can see that he wants his students to do well. HW isn't graded but you'll have to read and master concepts on your own. His exams are tough, but you'll do fine as long as you work hard. If you don't want lots of HW, take him.

Seasonal Variation in Production, Household Composition and Earnings in Cottage Manufacture: Evidence from Women Weavers Employed by a mid-19th Century Yorkshire Firm
Business History
Abstract: This paper uses a unique data set to focus on women weavers in mid-19th Century Britain. Records from John Murgatroyd and Sons worsted manufacturers focus on women weavers in the Halifax, Yorkshire area. Data are consistent with the hypothesis that cottage industry allowed workers to leave their weaving tasks during the peak labor season in agriculture, contributing to the persistence of putting out when the industrial revolution was underway. Seasonal variation of labor and production and payments provides quantitative evidence on the importance of the flexibility of cottage industry. A large variation in household arrangements also illustrates this flexibility.
