April 1965 Second Printing October 1966 INTRODUCTION

As a part of its continuing contribution to the formal and informal education of the Commonwealth citizen, the Pennsylvania State Library presents Books to Read Before College, a reading list drawn from suggestions submitted by the presidents and faculties of 28 colleges and universities in Pennsylvania. The list is presented in three sections. The first section, annotated, lists titles most often cited.Students who have yet to select a college or future course of study will benefit, obviously, from reading the books on this list. The second section lists books by subject field. Students and adults interested in a particular field of study will find in this list those books most highly recommended by educators in the respective fields. The third list in presented especially for those students who have selected or are considering one of the participating colleges for their future education. This sec- tion reproduces the titles each college felt each student enrolling in its curricula would most benefit from knowing. All books listed were in print at the close of 1964. The booklist was devised, annotated and edited by Ronn Fink, Public Information Officer. The final manuscript was prepared with the assistance of Robert Rook, secretary to Mr. Fink. The State Library hopes that students, parents, teachers and librarians will find this list practical and useful.It is part of the librarians' philosophy that knowing and having the tools to know will enrich the individual 'and, as a result, the Commonwealth.

26 SIGNIFICANT WORKS

These books were most frequently suggestedby college presidents as beneficial reading for the enrollingstudent. The Bible was specifically noted by many, assumed as the major workby others. The plays of Shakespeare were represented both as onebody of work and by indi- vidual title.The list here presented is in descendingorder, alphabeti- cally, beginning with the most frequentlymentioned title.

GULLIVER'S TRAVELS, Jonathan Swift.The abridged version read in child- hood delighted the fancy, but there is morethan meets the eye in the adult original of satire and social comment. Anannotated volume may be helpful.

ODYSSEY, Homer. Odysseus, returningfrom the Trojan War, finds difficulty in claiming his legal property. Thisepic, companion to the Iliad, is a majorlit- erary and historicalreference for much writing which was tofollow. Prose ver- sions are available.

Plays by Shakespeare. Comedies, tragediesand histories- by the world's best known dramatist. Recommended inthis order: Hamlet, Macbeth, Midsummer Night's Dream, Othello, Romeo and Juliet, AsYou Like It, Henry IV (Part One), Merchant of Venice, Twelfth Night.

THE ADVENTURES OF HUCKLEBERRYFINN, Mark Twain. The great Ameri- can classic of lifealong the Mississippi.

CRIME AND PUNISHMENT, FyodorDostoevsky. Robbery, murder and guilt in the world's greatest psychologicalnovel. Crime plays cat-and-mouse with the law in this lengthy, sometimes ponderous,but always compelling masterpiece.

THE RED BADGE OF COURAGE, StephenCrane. Cowardice and courage in the Civil War. One of theshortest, most highly readable of the classics.

DON QUIXOTE, Miguel de Cervantes.The adventures of an itinerant knight who can manufacture adventure out ofthe commonplace. Spain's greatest con- tribution to world literature.

10.0.0.0111041t1no,...... mvON.Mor GREAT EXPECTATIONS, Charles Dickens. Pip grows up ever in anticipation of better things and, once achieved, learns that happinesswas always in his own back yard. Written with two endings, sono reader can be disappointed.

THE GREAT GATSBY, F. Scott Fitzgerald. The King of the Jazz Age writes again of the complex social standards and relationships among the wealthy of the 1920s.

THE GREEK WAY, Edith Hamilton. The legacy of the Greeks reported with a deft hand by a foremost author of Hellenic culture. A beneficial introduction for the student.

ILIAD, Homer. The Trojan War and Achilles' involvement. This epicpoem is the earliest literature extant. Prose versionsare available and may be desired.

THE IMMENSE JOURNEY, Loren Eiseley.Essays on evolution. Of obvious interest to the budding scientist and student of religion, the beautiful writing in this book is worthy of every aspiring writer's attention. Dr. Eiseley isa professor at the University of Pennsylvania.

PRIDE AND PREJUDICE, Jane Auston. A mother's ambition tosee her dough- ters well married leads to numerous difficulties, primarily for the daughters. Dad secludes himself in his study so as not to get involved.

ROBINSON CRUSOE, Daniel Defoe.Shipwrecked on an island, the lone survivor sets out to build himself a one-man community. Things livenup with the appearance of Friday, a native who left his footprint in the sands.

WALDEN, Henry David Thoreau. A life of isolation, contemplation and self- reliancy in the wilds of Massachusetts, when all four things existed.

HOW TO READ A BOOK, Mortimer Adler. The why, how and what of books and reading. Variously received by critics when first published, Adler's book has been enlivening the conversations of educators since 1940.

MYTHOLOGY, Bullfinch, Graves or Hamilton. Gods and goddesses do all sorts of magical things, and, in the process, enrich our language, attitudes and literature. My Fair Lady got her start a long timeago.

ALICE IN WONDERLAND, Lewis Carroll. White Rabbit, Mad Hatter, Queen of Hearts, Cheshire Cat, Tweedledum and Tweedledee anda host of other char- acters famous and infamous give Alice a rough time. A woman's curiositycan lead to complications.

THE SEA AROUND US, Rachel Carson. The nature and mystery of thesea becomes amaiingly clear in this treatment aimed at the general reader. A FAREWELL TO ARMS, Ernest Hemingway. Love and battle in Italyduring World War I. DAVID COPPERFIELD, Charles Dickens. A little boy grows up, not without more than his share of misery. Someof fiction's most famous people are David's foes and friends. Generally considered highly autobiographical. PROFILES IN COURAGE, John F. Kennedy. The late president chronicled the moments of crisis in the lives of immortal Americans,and won the Pulitzer prize in the process. THE LONELY CROWD, David Reisman. Study of the changing socialchar- acter of the American people. THE GRAPES OF WRATH, John Steinbeck. Anguish and despair alongthe road as refugeei from the Oklahoma dust bowl search in vain for a betterlife in California. A classic of social comment, the change of timeshave drained some of the original power from thenovel. The book is enjoying a certain vogue on several campuses and may replaceLord of the Flies and Catcher in the Rye as the "in" book to read.

Librariespublic, school and collegeneed your supportif they are to provide the books, magazines,records, films, slides and newspapers essential for the studentand adult to continue his education, formally through classroominstruction or infor- mally through leisure reading.

Costs of library facilities, equipmentand material are at an all-time high and increasing. Trainedlibrary personnel is at a premium.Libraries, generally, are inadequate to meetthe growing demands of their patrons.Improvements have been made, but progress has been painfullydlOW.

The adult should consider carefullyhis obligations to the growing library movement. Thestudent who has yet to decide on a careerwould be wise to consider opportunitiesin librar- ianship. To investigate costs nothing; yourlibrary card is the key.
