What kind and level of English and American books were used and taught by the professors of English at the Government High Schools in the latter period of the Taisho era? This question urged the writer of the present paper to investigate and analyze the English textbooks used at the prestige high schools giving college level education under the control of the Ministry of Education in the prewar days.<BR>Fortunately, the writer happened to come across the lists dealing with the textbooks, their authors, teachers' names, their classes, etc. They were published in a series by <I>The Rising Generation</I> (『英語青年』) from June the 1st to December the 15th, 1921.<BR>In this report, the lists are introduced as Part I including what they called 'Number Schools', such as the First High School, and Part II including 'Local High Schools' which had place-names such as the Matsumoto High School.<BR>In Part I, the textbooks are shown in the Table classified by their subjects : poetry, drama, essays, novels, grammars, composition books, and so on. Moreover, some enumeration of the textbooks taught by the noted, well-known professors is made appropriately. Furthermore, the numbers of the textbooks are counted up according to each subject or genre and shown in percentages.<BR>The writer hopes this paper will be in some measure helpful to the researchers who are interested in the history of English studies in this country.
