America 250 Reading List from Youngstown State University

The year 2026 stands as a special landmark in the history of the United States. As the nation gears up for the 250th anniversary of the American Revolution this summer, the history of our country comes into sharper focus. Nothing tells the story of a country as powerfully as its literature. To that end, our friends from the Department of English and World Languages at Youngstown State University (YSU) have compiled a list of influential works of American lit to read in celebration of the Semiquincentennial! Browse and borrow these titles from the list below. Can't find the format you're looking for? Explore our catalog for more options or contact us for assistance!
