I would do my best to compile a list, either from suggestions e-mailed
to me at one of:

   anderson@vms.macc.wisc.edu
   anderson@wiscmacc[.bitnet]
   [backbone]!uwvax!vms.macc.wisc.edu!anderson

or from postings carrying the subject line "Getting Wise About Type"
in this newsgroup.

What would be best is Author, Title, Publisher, Date and a 2-3 line
terse comment on the content/value of each title.  Let's try to
limit it to first-rate books that are fairly readily available.

I'll collect data for three weeks (I'll be out of town 4/28-5/5),
then post what I have accumulated by then.
