Strange result when I add a title page to a book

Yea, turns out it was a format issue. I used a blank page for my title 
page, and Frame didn't like that. I got a suggestion off-list to import 
my formatting information, and when I did that, all was pretty much 
right with the world (except for a minor pagination issue).

Thanks,
Ron
