I don't know yet how many lectures it will take to finish chapters 15-18 of Stewart, and anyway there will not be a lot of lectures left. But everything we do afterwards and in fact basically everything we did so far is contained in Milne's lecture notes on Galois theory. I also recommend this page with information about solving quintic equations.
