Don't Know Much

Listen to a Conversation about “The World in Books” from Kansas Public Radio

Listen to my conversation with Dan Skinner, a former Director of Kansas Public Radio and the Audio-Reader Network. He is the host of KPR’s Conversations program. The interview is a little over 25 minutes long and presents an overview of

The World in Books: 52 Works of Great Short Nonfiction (Scribner, October 2024)

“On this edition of Conversations, Kenneth C. Davis talks with host Dan Skinner about “The World in Books: 52 Works of Great Short Non-Fiction.” Davis is the New York Times bestselling author of “America’s Hidden History” and “Don’t Know Much About History,” which gave rise to his series of books on a range of subjects, including mythology, the Bible, geography, and the Civil War. This book is designed as an introduction to short books that will make you think about who you are and what you believe.”
