This is the first time I've looked at Creative Commons. Does the wording make sense? Is there a better way of putting it?
An observation - I assume you are not claiming any rights in the text of the book so it is the format and layout you are licensing under the CC licence. Perhaps you should make that clear as otherwise it's open for someone to say "how can this guy claim rights in a book published in 1726" as justification.
