There is no better way to prove to your teacher that you are a serious & prepared student of history than to walk into class having mastered this book. 

6 Glasses is a fantastic way to experience the history of the world through one specific dimension - drink. You will learn a perspective on the world that will be invaluable in preparing you for the scope and depth of the course.

How can I get help throughout the summer?
You are not alone in this. Do not be shy about asking questions. Forming a study group that meets once or twice a month can also provide you with a push to complete the book. There is no better way to know something with depth and clarity than to help someone else understand it.

 Also - email Mr. Duez if you have any questions:
