Hello again,
I've compiled a short list of titles that sound intriguing - after reading Powell's synopsis of them - from a rather large collection from Powell's Books (Portland,OR) Machine Shop section at the following site:

Anybody, please let me know if you are familiar with a title and what you think of it. Some of them are not cheap so, don't want to invest if they are not worth the money. Thanks.
The titles are:
The Model Engineer's Lather Manual by E.T. Westbury (NOTE: misspelling of lathe is theirs but you might want to use it if you are wanting to call up the title at Powell's)
Model Engineering A Guide to Model Workshop Practice
by Henry Greenly
Lathe Operations by J Barritt
Milling Operations in the Lathe by Tubal Cain
Vertical Milling in the Home Workshop by Arnold Throp
Gears & Gear Cutting by Ivan Law
