 I would like to do the same with ggplot2 but have been unsuccessful. The
 following sequence of statements seemed like a logical way to do it:
 p - ggplot(diamonds, aes(carat, price))
 p + geom_point() + facet_wrap(~clarity, ncol = 2, nrow = 2)
 But they result in the error statement: Error in nrow * ncol : non-numeric
 argument to binary operator.

 Is facet_wrap or facet_grid capable of producing multiple pages of plots
 and, if so, how?

Not automatically - it's up to you to figure out how to split the
factor levels in pages and then create the appropriate subsets.
