I want to find as many book titles with 384 pages as I can. Amazon does not
seem to allow me to search for books by their number of pages. Nor do
most library catalogues. Any ideas? Any books?

Dear mediafarmers-ga,

My advice is to run a basic google search with "384 pages" in the
search box. I retrieved some pretty good results. You could also
include year of publication if you know it.

Google search keywords:

- 384 pages
- 384 pgs.
- "384 pages" 2001

Let me know how this works for you. Feel free to submit a
clarification request if you need additional ideas.

Thanks,

rapidreference-ga

Or if you want to search Amazon for such books, try a Google search of
site:www.amazon.com "384 pages"

If you do a search at the Library of Congress catalog site, using the
keyphrase "384 p", you will get 10,000 titles of books that contain
384 pages. I believe 10,000 is the maximum that the online search is
capable of displaying.
