Here is Chapter I of the Steam House by Jules Verne. I think they have a way to go. I wonder if Google is planning to do better? To be fair the Dejavu look at the rather bad images allows them to be mostly made out, so one could reconstruct most of this page. The first line is "TWO THOUSAND POUNDS FOR A HEAD". The images are like with a 300 mp camera, so not surprizing the poor OCR. I think PG texts are easier to read. I understand the books are being destroyed after scanning: might as well put them right into the dumpster and save all the trouble.
