100 Oldest Books Randy M. Has Read

I published my 50 oldest reads a bit too soon. Recalling a few I hadn't included, I started a new list and as I added more, more came to mind and pretty soon, 100. Then I wondered if I could cut off before 1930. I did, but there were a couple extra from 1929. No, I didn't delete them. And so, 102.
I didn't include some story collections like The Invisible Eye (all of the stories were written pre-1910) or Ghost and Horror Stories of Ambrose Bierce (all published by 1910) because those books were published much later.
