Having now done the complete works of Charles Dickens and Jane Austen, I have decided to continue creating my own versions of the works of what I consider to be the great British novelists of the 18th and 19th centuries. I realise that most of what I'm going to post is going to be a duplicate of what others have posted previously, but this is in no way intended as a slight on the earlier posters, nor is it intended to suggest that my versions will be in any way "better" than those earlier versions. The reason I'm doing it is simply that I've evolved a formatting style that I personally like, and want to have a set of "great novels" that are formatted in a consistent manner to suit my entirely personal likings.

I shall be concentrating solely on British authors. The field of American literature I leave to others more knowledgeable in that field than myself.

I shall be doing other "lighter" stuff as well; the "great literature project" will be an ongoing "background activity".
