Agreed, not in the PD... published in 42 it looks like... not on Project Gutenberg.

Okay, that means I got one more nom or second/third.

I don't find this book anywhere? Who was the author and when was it published?
Good-bye, Mr. Chips by James Hilton. Oh - June 1934!

And I now withdraw the nomination, because its not out of copyright!

Sorry about that!

I missed it too... too subtle -- you have to hit some of us over the head with it.

But is WAS NOT a Nomination.....I'm reserving my one last and best nom/vote.

Thackeray "Barry Lyndon"
I'd like to nominate William Makepeace Thackeray's - "The Luck of Barry Lyndon".

From amazon.com
"The novel concerns the life and times of the title character and narrator, a roguish Irishman. The fast-flowing satirical narrative reveals a man dedicated to success and good fortune."

The novel was made into a well-known film by Stanley Kubrick.

Madam Broshkina has provided versions here.

Thanks Bob though a definitive list of previous Book Club Books would be useful, i guess apathy rules with some folks LOL

Thank's for volunteering. Your bets bet is to go to the Social Group for the book club and add it there.

I would like to second "The Three Musketeers" and nominate "Captain Blood" by Rafael Sabatini.

I still have one vote left.

I'll third "Kim".

And now I have to find Jules Verne story to nominate. "Unfortunately" I had The Mysterious Island as "comic" book as a child and know it far too well, but I can't remrember I've read any other Verne story.
