Maybe I'm being naive or just thinking like a neophyte, but I was
troubled by the unchallenged assertion that there are no books currently
available on mosses or lichens. I went to amazon.com, searched on the
word "mosses", and found 139 matches, of which about 90% were relevant.
Here are some from the first page of 25 citations:
