It does catch me up short when people who I consider well-educated show both a lack of knowledge of and a concern for history.

I wish someone would assemble a list like this. I've also realized recently that I enjoy learning history if it's presented in an engaging way.

This (website of the author of Lies My Teacher Told Me) has a few suggestions I might look into, but it's mostly about books for teachers on *how* to teach history: http://sundown.afro.illinois.edu/content.php?file=teachertips.html
