This was for volume one only: The Great Conversation - The substance of a Liberal Education

I could not find an individual volume listing and the printed ISBN brought up a separate work.

Volume one makes a convincing argument for self-education.

The total collection comprises the 443 works of 73 authors.

Two of the volumes contain 102 chapters containing "The Great Ideas".

Appendix 2 gives a suggested reading list to span a 10 year period.

Of the Great Books, I have chosen to read and then list them as their separate publications.
