A First Dictionary of Cultural Literacy: What Our Children Need to Know

Before E.D. Hirsch came along we were wallowing in the dark wasteland of ignorance. The Dictionary of Cultural Literacy is somewhat of a Bible to me and my kinfolk. When ever I need practical help I can always turn to Hirsch's words of wisdom and they guide me towards the essential truths...Basically this is everything you need to know and everything your child needs to know all together in one book. In fact, you can throw away every book you've ever read- this has EVERYTHING. Forget anything else you've ever read, that isn't important. The world according to E.D. Hirsch is the world according to me.Hopefully public educators will see E.D. Hirsch for the visionary genius that he is and force all children to follow his path to higher wisdom.
