Hi for the past 20 years I have known about Project Gutenberg and I used to read a lot from it. One of the obstacle that I face is that there is no way to arrange the books in the order of their original publication.
Do you know of any such way.
Surely we can arrange the books by their release date on Gutenberg but it has long baffled me as it feels to me the most useless way of sorting the books.
Thank you for Project Gutenberg.

only 20% of our books have original publication data in the db. We have a project to add another 40% or so from another database, let us know if you want to help.
