I did a similar exercise some years ago. Below find the "obvious" items on my list which are not on your list for you to consider. I have not filtered out on "English Only" -- which I think is a bad idea -- I think well-known translations need to be included. These are all on PG but have not otherwise been checked for more detailed copyright issues. Where I have only included an author name it is because I would not pretend to be able to guess which (only) of that author's works to include. As always, the unfortunate reality is that this list of the "Best of the Best" also includes many of PG's worst transcribed, and worst html/epub efforts. Cheers.
