We very rarely do statistics, but on one occasion in late 1999 when we
did, we found the top author searches to be:
- shakespeare
- poe
- doyle
- melville
- dante
- joyce
- shaw
- christie
- conrad
- porter
- verne
- hemingway
- darwin
- miller
- woolf
- zola
- king
- eliot
- churchill
- smith
- twain
and the top individual books searched for to the point of downloading
were:
- Lady Susan, by Jane Austen
- 1st PG Collection of Edgar Allan Poe
- The Adventures of Sherlock Holmes, by Arthur Conan Doyle
- Moby Dick, by Herman Melville
- A Christmas Carol, by Dickens
- The King James Bible
- Twelve Stories and a Dream, by H.G. Wells
- Stories by Modern American Authors
- Lock and Key Library, Magic & Real Detectives
- [Hans Christian] Andersen's Fairy Tales
- The Legend of Sleepy Hollow, Washington Irving
These numbers vary a lot. When a movie based on a classic is released,
downloads of that eBook go through the roof!
