Clicking on the double arrow above the book file tab shrinks the file to a 
button that's pretty small.

Interesting. No version of FrameMaker ever remembered the size of the book 
file window for me. I always had to resize it larger. In FM9, the default 
window is tall enough that I can see the whole tree in the book file without 
resizing. I like it-- though I find the window to be wider than necessary. 
It extends about an inch to the right of the rightmost icon in the header 
bar.
