There are two books i want to buy, and i am being particular about the quality of each, but for different reasons. How do you decide which edition of a book meets your criteria, especially when shopping online?

First, I want a paperback edition of Marcus Aurelius' meditations. There are many. I would like excellent paper, lovely clear print and a large format (but not large print) edition. Do you simply sift through the online editions, or is there a publishing house that's your go-to for quality?

Secondly, I am looking for an edition of Alice in Wonderland for my granddaughter. How to find one with lovely illustrations and beautiful paper?

Both of these books have been printed so many times that I am overwhelmed by trying to find exactly what I have in mind.
