Beschreibung:
Daniel Greenstone is an award-winning high school English teacher in suburban Chicago. He has pursued diverse interests such as basketball, short story writing, and children's literature. He is an expert on the "Curious George "series by H.A. Rey. He lives in Oak Park, IL with his wife and family. This is his first book.
This is the humorous, fast-paced story of an irreverent, flawed man who has a talent for accumulating both protégés and enemies. George Cavaliere, a veteran high school history teacher, has many attributes of a brilliant educator. He's a vibrant classroom performance artist, his colleagues respect his knowledge of history, and he's popular with many students. Cavaliere is at his best when he's debunking the so-called ""Great Man"" theory of history, which maintains that the actions of major historical figures dominate the course of human events.
