books listed

I was surprised to notice I had a bunch of books added to the catalog that I have yet to publish. These listings go back a ways. I've been seriously remiss in getting things listed. Most of them have been in my Catalog Data but not yet published in this blog (which probably is more likely to show up in searches). I have a somewhat improved set-up here now that I hope will spur me to get back to work. We'll see about that. There's a lot of work to do. For now, though, here are these:
