This volume covers local as well as global differential geometry of curves and surfaces. *Makes extensive use of elementary linear algebra - with emphasis on basic geometrical facts rather than on machinery or random details. *Stresses the basic ideas of differential geometry - regular surfaces, the Gauss map, covariant derivatives. *Includes a large number of fully-worked examples.

This is probably the best book of Differential Geometry that I have read. The autor is a master in pedagogy and explains the topics with great clarity. Each chapter starts with an short intro if there is somethings you want to skip on a first read, or want to recap something from the pre req.
I've often heard that this is The Classic book in Diff. Geometry, and I easily understand why!
