I like to consider myself reasonably bright, I have a decent education and read widely but it's all science, politics, nature/environment. I seem to have missed all the more cultural things.
So if 2014's the year I learn something about history, how should I go about it and which subjects should I start with?
I'm thinking of having, say, six topics to cover - 2 months each. Would that be long enough/too long? I'm obviously not looking for great in depth knowledge just a little interesting understanding.
Is there such a thing as a history book that's also a decent read?!
