I think The Code of the Woosters / Stiff Upper Lip, Jeeves contains 2 stories and, therefore, is combined incorrectly with
The Code of the Woosters

Same with Uneasy Money, The Little Nugget, Adventures of Sally
Which seems to be combined incorrectly with
Uneasy Money

Not

Liz V. (wwwgoodreadscomlizv) | 43475 comments Librarian unable to confirm. ISBN may have been reused.

The Crossley ID Guide: Eastern Birds mistitled, per cover The Crossley ID Guide Eastern Birds by Richard Crossley and book descriptions, and I don't see Richard Crossley on cover.

And, therefore, combined incorrectly with
Crossley ID Guide: Eastern Birds

Arenda | 26448 comments #12 Can't confirm anything for this isbn, so the title may be wrong or the cover may be wrong (or the isbn was even used for both titles, with this mix-up as result)

#13 Done, I think. According to Wikipedia, "Rural Rides" and "Rural Rides in the Counties" are two different books. Combined accordingly.

#14 done

I just noticed, re #14, the title of La Symbolique, Ou Exposition des contrariétés dogmatiques entre les catholiques et les protestans, Vol. 1: D'après leurs confessions de foi publiques, Vol. 2 refers to Volumes 1 & 2, though cover does not. La Symbolique, ou Exposition des Contrariétés Dogmatiques Entre les Catholiques Et les Protestants, d'Après Leurs Confessions de Foi Publiques, Vol. 2 by Johann Adam Möhler

History "Book 5 : Ages 7-9"
Currently is combined incorrectly with

To avoid confusion
Add "Ages 5-7" to History 1

Add "Book 7 : Ages 9-11 " to History

Delete repetitive parenthetical :

The Scottish Chiefs, a Romance Volume 1

There are 2, 3 & 4 Volume sets, so I am unsure with which of the following the above Volume should be combined

* The Scottish Chiefs, Vol. 1 of 3: A Romance
* The Scottish Chiefs, Vol. 1 of 4: A Romance

Arenda | 26448 comments #21 The content of The Complete Works of George Gascoigne, Volume 1 is The Posies, so it's correctly combined already. I've combined it with more other editions. Cunliffe is the editor, Gascoigne the original writer.

#27 Separated. Added book number and content/subtitle (instead of age)

#29 skipped

Eat Me was later republished as Bite Me, so I think they are correctly combined. (I had reverted some incorrect title and author changes on the earliest editions earlier today.)

After posting about #26, i suspected it was same book with 2 titles and deleted post, but you answered so quickly!

I disagree with separating these, as they would seem to fall under our rules about revised editions of a work being combined with the originals.

(I also suspect the contents are the same, and just the titles of some are shortened, but even if that is not the case.)

Easter in the Garden seems to be combined incorrectly with all the books in a series

Should be combined with
Easter In the Garden


message 48: by Arenda (new)

Arenda | 26448 comments #46 was already separated by someone

#47 I managed to separate Easter in the Garden (and all other books that were incorrectly combined) but combining is down due to maintenance (as usually in the first week of January), so I will combine them when it is working again.
