I find it interesting that I have not note a mention of people like 
Radia Pearlman and [name advancing years have stolen from me] that wrote 
a 3 volume set (I think it was) (that I can not find in the 
post-great-downsizing-bookshelves-disarray at the moment*).

*did a little Binging--Not W. Richard Stevens although the subconscious 
thinks "steven" might have been the first name.

NO!  Douglas E. Comer "Internetworking with TCP/IP"
(Nice try subconscious!  Volume 3 is co-authored by David L. Stevens.)
