Salem Press: "Recommended Reading: 500 Classics Reviewed" - Page 9

A well-rounded list of mostly fiction. The source book is "Recommended Reading: 500 Classics Reviewed" (Salem Press, 1995). Unfortunately I was unable to obtain the 2015 2nd edition, which discusses 600 works. The two editions are at Items 509 & 510.
Alphabetical by title but with some works broken down into their component books, e.g. 'The Alexandria Quartet'.
