Unfortunately it was the best-known books which got added to PG first, and hence these are the ones which are of the poorest quality.

For example, I've just finished reading four "Dr. Thorndyke" books by R. Austin Freeman. Three of them were virtually flawless; the fourth was full of errors.
Have you fixed the errors and reposted a "better" copy?
