Printable RC Lists (including chronological order)
I've linked to text files below, when available (you may prefer printing from them rather than scans). Read the benefits of using text files. (Smaller books, editable language, fonts, etc.) Sometimes the pictures in online versions (PDFs or HTML) are lighter than in RC and may print better.
Please see About the Format of Online Books if you have questions about what's listed here. And if you choose to use one of the Uncorrected OCR texts, be sure to copy and paste it, because "save link target" causes errors.
For your eBook reader, use one of Gutenberg's formats, or click on the MB links to find more formats at ManyBooks.
If more than one version of a book was available, I chose the one that matched RC, when possible, or a substitute of equal or higher quality.
(Some titles have been corrected, or expanded, from the original list.)

| 64. | Picturesque America (Vol. 1) - Uncorrected OCR text or PDF of scanned book at IA. Or whiter scans at GB.
Or, substitute Letters of a Traveller by the same author. It is a written description without drawings. If you took the pictures out of the original 2 volumes, you'd probably be left with about the same amount of text as the substitute book. So this could possibly count for both volumes. (See #82 on this list for another idea.) | William Cullen Bryant |
| 65. | Gulliver's Travels - The original version is available, but parents (of any religion) may find it objectionable. (See Latter-day Saint note for more about that.)
Here's a Child-Friendly Version [printed 1900]. (Also in HTML with pics.) [sub MB] This book was not intended for children when it was written. The children's version does not contain the inappropriate parts. ♦ Latter-day Saint note | Jonathan Swift |

| 67. | Personal Memoirs of U. S. Grant (Vol. 1) MB | Ulysses S. Grant |

| 72. | Life of George Washington (Vol. 1) MB - This is the only volume (of 3) in a corrected text format. Also available as uncorrected OCR text or PDF of scanned book at IA. Or whiter scans at GB.
Note: Irving wrote 5 volumes, but only 3 are included in RC. (See #80 on this list [Vol. 3] for links to Irving's Vols. 4 and 5. He originally meant it to be 3 volumes, but it ended up longer than he anticipated.) Or, you can substitute with the corrected text The Life of George Washington by John Marshall (a friend of Washington's almost all his life). Marshall's version is also 5 volumes (all online). The link above takes you to a list of all 5 volumes. Click here for (Marshall's) Life of George Washington Vol. 1. (Also in HTML with pics.) [sub MB] Or, there is a condensed version of Irving's volumes, which is still over 700 pages long. [sub MB] | Washington Irving |

| 74. | The Prince and the Pauper (Also in HTML with pics.) MB | Mark Twain |

| 78. | Rudyard Kipling's Verse; Inclusive Edition 1885-1918 - Uncorrected OCR text or PDF of scanned book at IA. Or whiter scans at GB. (May want to print different title page than GB's, because the decoration meant something different than what we think of now.)
Or, substitute Kipling's Verses (1889-1896) [sub MB] - This is much shorter than the RC version (which is 796 pages), but still large. If you want more poetry here to make up for it, add (or substitute) the following great book and expose your child to many different poets. Poems Every Child Should Know (Also in HTML with pics.) [sub MB] | Rudyard Kipling |
| 79. | McGuffey's Sixth Eclectic Reader - Use the PDF version to get the proper phonetic marks, or just print from RC. (PDF contains pics.) MB | William McGuffey |

| 82. | Picturesque America (Vol. 2) - Uncorrected OCR text or PDF of scanned book at IA. Or whiter scans at GB.
Or, #64's substitute book (Letters of a Traveller) may be long enough to count for both of these volumes. Or read that and then buy a pictorial book. Barnes and Noble has nice ones, even in their bargain section. They have modern photo books, or those with photos from the late 1800s (when Bryant's book was written.) Try looking in the travel, history, and photography sections. (Of course you can buy used to save money.) | William Cullen Bryant |
| 83. | The Diaries of George Washington (Vol. 1) - HTML (both with pics) linked below. In RC the Diaries span 4 volumes. Online they are arranged to span 6 volumes. You will need both Volume 1 and Volume 2 from online to get the equivalent of the RC vol. 1. | George Washington |
| 84. | The Law - This text file has more than just "The Law," so you don't need to print the whole thing. Search the text for the words "monopoly of education". "The Law" begins right after that. (This text file is a slightly different translation than RC. But the differences do not appear significant, as the meaning is the same.) Or get just the correct section (and same translation as RC) in HTML. MB | Frederic Bastiat |
| 85. | Treasure Island (Also in HTML with pics.) MB | Robert Louis Stevenson |

| 90. | Poems - Uncorrected OCR text or PDF of scanned book at IA. Or, whiter scans at GB. Or, you could substitute Poetical Works...Volume 1: Earlier Poems. (It seems to be the most similar in length and content.) [sub MB] Or, go to PG or MB and look up your favorite poet! | Oliver Wendell Holmes |
| 91. | Afloat and Ashore MB | James Fenimore Cooper |
| 92. | The Diaries of George Washington (Vol. 4) - HTML (with pics) linked below. In RC the Diaries span 4 volumes. Online they are arranged to span 6 volumes. You will need Volume 6 from online to get the equivalent of the RC vol. 4. | George Washington |
| 93. | Life of David Crockett (Autobiography) - Uncorrected OCR text or PDF of scanned book at IA. Or whiter scans at GB. Or, there is an earlier version of his autobiography at PG, but it ended in two years before his death, and only has 17 chapters. The book in RC [and at IA and GB] has 36 chapters, and also includes his time in Texas up until his death at the Alamo. Or, since this is the second book about Crockett, you could substitute The Life of Kit Carson by Edward S. Ellis, for either this book or #57. [sub MB] | David Crockett |
| 94. | Not Yours to Give - HTML | David Crockett |
| 95. | The Vicar of Wakefield MB | Oliver Goldsmith |
| 96. | Economic Sophisms - also called Sophisms of the Protectionists MB (Titles vary, depending on translation.) The RC version contains Series 1 and 2. This text version also contains two extra sections, so you can just print the first two parts to match RC. Or here's the HTML that is the exact same translation as RC. The differences in translations do not appear to be significant. The meaning is the same. | Frederic Bastiat |
| 97. | The Life and Times of Abraham Lincoln - Uncorrected OCR text or PDF of scanned book at IA. Or whiter scans at GB. Or, substitute The Life of Abraham Lincoln by Henry Ketcham. [sub MB] | L. P. Brockett |

Or, use my Text File Version (zipped). I cobbled this together from a bunch of online texts. (It's a collection of short stories.) This zip file also contains the picture of the Map of Paris for you to insert into your book. It's too funny to do without. | Mark Twain |
| 114. | The Soldier in Our Civil War (Vol. 2) - Uncorrected OCR text or PDF of scanned book at IA.

| 136. | Caesar's Gallic War - also called The War in Gaul MB (Titles vary, depending on translation.) It is the first half of this text file. This file also contains the book "The Civil War", or book #156 on this list. The title of the online text is misleading, but it does contain the two books on RC.

| 154. | An Essay Concerning Human Understanding (Vol. 2) MB ♦ Latter-day Saint note Or, as a book about multiple philosophers and their views, you could substitute The World's Greatest Books Vol. 14 - Philosophy and Economics. Use the first section of the book, which covers just philosophy. [sub MB] | John Locke |
| 155. | Observations upon the Prophecies of Daniel, and the Apocalypse of St. John MB - Contains both parts, just like RC. ♦ Latter-day Saint note | Isaac Newton |
| 156. | Bellum Civile - also called The Civil War MB (Titles vary, depending on translation.) It is the second half of this text file. This file also contains the book "The War in Gaul", or book #136 on this list. The title of the online text is misleading, but it does contain the two books on RC. (Scroll down to the files "Contents" and you'll see both titles listed. I checked very carefully to make sure they matched.) | Julius Caesar |
| 157. | De Bello Gallico - also called Bellum Gallicum or C. Iuli Caesaris Commentarii (Titles vary, depending on translation.) - Uncorrected OCR text or PDF of scanned book at GB. This book appears to be the commentary of a modern author (T. Rice Holmes) about Caesar's commentary on the Gallic War. The text is the same as book #136, only it is in Latin, and contains the editor's commentary which explains Caesar's text. | Julius Caesar and T. Rice Holmes |
