When I'm 64 - Markd9528's Books Twice His Age or More

Twice my age or more equates to books written or first published prior to 1892. These are 100 books I have read that fulfil that age requirement (having been checked on Wikipedia). Some classics, such as the 4 great plays of Chekhov, just missed being included.
In real life I resemble the man on the cover of the Penguin version of Silas Marner. But as time passes perhaps looking more like my list image (infantile half-human, half-ape) would be preferable.
