      Most of the pages below are Works in Progress. For the past few years I seem to have a ongoing problem of buying Music Reference Books   for my collection   of 670+ titles faster than I am able to add each new one to a Bibliography page here.

      ** = identifies pages which display thumbnail book cover images of the books listed. Otherwise, click on the "cover scans" link by each book's entry, for the pages that list all scans done for either, every book I own, or scans of books I borrowed from local public libraries near Oshkosh, Wisconsin.
