Well if you ask the people who uploaded the book I'm sure they'll say it's legit. How do check that a book is legit? Check every single publisher and ask if it's theirs for every book uploaded? Publishing rights can change between countries and languages and formats too. I imagine it's a giant mess.
There's a video game, No One Lives Forever that had it's rerelease cancelled because nobody is sure who actually owns the rights to it anymore because of various mergers, sales and acquisitions that happened over the years. IP rights can be insanely complicated sometimes.
