Lists of Bests: SelfishLittleThings's "Recommended Reading List for the Well Educated Adult"

Send to Printer SelfishLittleThings's "Recommended Reading List for the Well Educated Adult" When I was in high school 9th and 12th Grade English Teacher had a "Recommended Reading List for the Well Educated Adult". I had the list for several years after and liked that I had a list of classics and quality books, both fiction and non-fiction. Sometime in the last 5 years I lost the list. This list is an attempt to re-create it and have a major lists of books folks should read. This list has been compiled from various lists which can be found online and also from my own personal input. Hopefully it will not be easy to tell which is which. Accept no substitute. :)
