The titles in question aren't just public-domain books that have long been freely available at such sites as Project Gutenberg. They appear to be the exact Gutenberg files, save only for minor formatting adjustments and the removal of that volunteer-run site's license
Just to point out that removing the license is not a nefarious way of tricking people, it is a requirement of PG if you sell their books. Leaving the license in would be wrong.
