Charles Jarvis translated Don Quixote, but a lot of the public domain republications have it under his name only. Tony Johannot was an illustrator who illustrated the Jarvis translations, along with a lot of other things, and there's a bunch of books under his name too.
These aren't huge projects, but they're good practise for reordering around author names etc.
What needs doing: 1. Figure out the correct original author for each work, and put them first. Keep Jarvis and Johannot as appropriate, but not in first position, and with their roles. 2. Fix the titles, they're a mess, be careful with the volume numbers though (they need to stay in the title part, not in parentheses, or someone will eventually autocombine them with the single volume editions.) 3. Combine when done (this will be a lot easier if you did #2 first, Combining on pages for the PD classics is a pain in the rear end at the best of times.)
