When Kenneth C. Davis wrote Don't Know Much About History 15 years ago, few would have predicted that a little book promising to teach you, everything you need to know but never learned would create such a stir --earning widespread praise, spending 35 consecutive weeks on the New York Times bestseller list, racking up more than 1.3-million in sales and becoming the cornerstone in a multimillion-copy, multi-book and audio tape franchise that adults, children and educators would embrace.
In addition to his many books, Davis is a Contributing Editor to US Weekend magazine where his popular Don't Know Much About quizzes are read each week by millions around the country. He has also contributed to national newspapers, including the Op-ed page and Week in Review section of The New York Times, and has also been a Commentator of National Public Radio's All Things Considered. Davis appears frequently in the national media and has been on Today, Fox & Friends and CNN as well as many other television and radio broadcasts.
