Learning Language Arts Through Literature Gold Book - American Literature 3rd Edition

Description

For such a young country, American authors sure have a lot to say! Divided into 4 units: short story, novel, essay, and poetry, you are getting a broad survey of American Lit in one high school year. Many of the short stories and poems come from a required anthology (part of our sets). You will read from well-known authors and likely be introduced to some new favorites.

In addition to the readings in the Course Book, you will need 5 books and a Bible. (Scripture passages in the course come from the New American Standard Bible.) These novels and anthologies can be purchased a la carte, purchased in our Book Package (LLTLGA) for the course, or in our Complete Set (LLCPGA).

Authors covered include Emerson, Longfellow, Dickinson, Robinson, Crane, Frost, Williams, Ransom, Cummings, Auden, James, Anderson, Thurber, Steinbeck, and lots more with the short story unit!  ~Sara
