the leading edge on this front, but I thought that the microformatters
would be a good place to start as well.

I checked the wiki and the info was sparse, so I thought the mailing
list readers might have more info tucked away on blogs somewhere.

 I assume you've seen these pages:

http://microformats.org/wiki/book-brainstorming
http://microformats.org/wiki/book-examples
http://microformats.org/wiki/book-formats

I suspect the wiki is sparse because there aren't many real world examples from which to draw semantics. There are two examples on the examples page and one points to bibliography markup for a plain-text book (as I believe all Project Gutenberg books are). So that leaves us with only one example from which to draw semantics, prompting the question: is there really a need for such a microformat?

Peace,
Scott
