Books from High-School English Courses (245 books)

In 1989 the Center for the Learning and Teaching of Literature (SUNY Albany; Arthur Applebee, director) produced a report on what books were taught in various kinds of high school literature courses. This is an unannotated and uncriticized list of the books they mention. (Please do not add books except with respect to the note below.)

I have annotated in my votes which books that are required in more than 30% of public, Catholic and independent schools — click here , or next to "Richard" on the list of People Who Voted On This List. All other titles I have added are required in at least 5% of one or more of those kind of schools. Just to confuse things further, the "schools" are grades 7-12 for public schools, but 9-12 for Catholic and independent.

Note: A single user can only add 100 titles, so I was unable to add the following. I hope a volunteer does so...
