Okay, after watching the first season several times and catching up with season 2 - I have some major questions about August Booth. How does he know all the stuff he knows? He knows about Baelfire and who Baelfire is. He knows about Henry's Book (which was given to him by Snow White, but who gave it to her?). We don't know if August actually wrote all of the book. Only parts of it. We only know he added his own story and was adding Rumple/Baelfire's as we saw the drawing of the dagger. Yet, and here I get confused, he assumed the dagger would function normally.

So...WHERE is he getting all his information from!? He could not possibly know everyones backstories. He would need some sort of run in with a Seer (is that why he was half way around the world when Emma decided to stay in Storybrooke?).
