Uploaded improved versions of Vols 5, 6, 7.

HarryT · 09-07-2008, 05:38 AM

Several typos fixed in Vol 1. Thanks to Sparrow for reporting these.

HarryT · 01-02-2009, 08:35 AM

Thoroughly proof-read "The Eye of Osiris" in Vol 1 against a Google page scan, and fixed dozens of errors as a result, as well as adding in all the missing italics, and an image of a Greek inscription not previously included. Uploaded a new version of Vol 1 as a result.

HarryT · 01-05-2009, 12:13 PM

Read "The Mystery of 31 New Inn" in Vol 1 and corrected a number of minor formatting errors as a result. Uploaded a new version of Vol 1. This will be the final version of Vol 1 unless any subsequent errors are found.

HarryT · 05-24-2009, 07:11 AM

Proof-read Vol 2 and uploaded a new version. Several hundred errors corrected.

Thanks you, I look forward to reading these. Never heard of him until you posted.

HarryT · 02-28-2010, 05:42 AM

Added "The Mystery of Angelina Frood" to Vol 3 (very kindly scanned and proofed by MR user "sstaley"). Corrected the HTML errors in all volumes, and added new cover images. Uploaded new versions of all volumes.

HarryT · 03-19-2010, 07:41 AM

The "missing" book from Vol 5, "Dr. Thorndyke Investigates", is nothing more than a compilation of short stories from earlier books. I've included the table of contents for the book, and referred the reader to the original source for each of the stories. Uploaded a new version of Vol 5.

HarryT · 03-22-2010, 05:53 AM

Added "Dr. Thorndyke Intervenes" to Vol 6; this was the last "missing" book, although a number of essays and short stories still remain to be added. Thanks to MR user "sstaley" for scanning the book, and Conor for helping to proof-read it. Uploaded a new version of Vol 6.

HarryT · 03-22-2010, 01:14 PM

Added the essays "Meet Dr. Thorndyke" and "The Art of the Detective Story" to Vol 7. This makes the omnibus complete, with one minor exception - a further essay titled "5A King's Bench Walk", which I've left a "placeholder" for in Vol 7. Uploaded a new version of Vol 7.

HarryT · 04-05-2010, 06:32 AM

Completely proof-read all four books in Vol 3, and corrected many hundreds of errors. Uploaded a new version of Vol 3. Vol 3 is now in a good state, so please let me know if any errors remain in it.

HarryT · 07-21-2010, 12:14 PM

Completely proof-read all four books in Vol 4, and corrected many hundreds of errors. There were a great many missing words in this volume; in the vast majority of cases the correct word was obvious, but in a few instances I've had to make an intelligent guess as to what the word should be. Please let me know if you find any remaining errors in Vol 4.

HarryT · 12-30-2010, 06:14 AM

Completely proof-read the books in Vol 5. Numerous errors corrected. Please let me know if you find any remaining errors in Vol 5.

HarryT · 07-29-2011, 08:14 AM

Completely proof-read the books in Vol 6, and corrected a very large number of errors. Once again, please let me know if you find any remaining errors in Vol 6.

HarryT · 08-07-2011, 04:19 AM

Completely proof-read Vol 7 and corrected several hundred errors. This book is still missing the essay "5A King's Bench Walk", but is now otherwise complete. Please let me know if you find any remaining errors in this, or, indeed, any of the other volumes.
