Replaced two mispelled titles – My Antonio and Tristam Shandy.

Thanks for doing this list!
I just changed The Three Musketeers to a version with the title spelled correctly. (From this one.) Also, the version of Les Miserables you’ve got on here is the score for the musical (not the novel), which I’m pretty sure is wrong, but I left it anyway….
