Bibliography of Books for use in Senior English Classes

This thesis is a bibliography of books for use in a senior English class.

Each time period categorizes books further into people and material traits, government, literature and art forms, language, biographies, poetry and prose

Most of the titles are recommended, and I have included grade level for many of the titles
