the version of these books in my childhood were the collected editions of Jules Verne. They had the same "proper book" feel to them (sans the illustrated jackets), and each of them contained a killer of a story. I think I read The Mysterious Island at least 4 times, and equally liked Captain Grant's Children, 20,000 Leagues Under the Sea, A Captain at Fifteen, and dozens of others. The collection we had contained, I think, at least 12 volumes, each containing several novels.
