Back to Basics The Education You Wish You'd Had

A compendium of those things you always meant to learn, from Latin verse to art history to cloud types, that doubles as a reminder of the basics and provides fresh, new information as well

Don't know Midas from Oedipus? Wouldn't recognize a concerto from a sonata? Many people wish that they could fill in the gaps in their education in order to avoid those embarrassing situations when they feel as if they don't know things that others do. Caroline Taggart offers readers the opportunity to learn really useful information that was never taught in mainstream education, while also giving a refresher course on the main staples. From brushing up on Bible stories and classical architecture to identifying different types of clouds, their thirst for knowledge will be sated and education complete—and it's fun to boot!
