The Truth About Some "Great" Men and Women |
In this section we hope to expose some of the men and women who have been commonly exalted and lauded as "great" authors, artists, musicians, etc. whose works are considered "classics" and "necessary" for a "well rounded" education for both children and adults. Some of them might still be used with caution. Others are of doubtful use at all.
