Books on the Eucharistic Prayers of the Roman Rite

Starting in June, I will begin work on the third volume of Praying the Mass, which looks at the Eucharistic Prayers of the Roman Rite (and their new English translation in the third edition of the Roman Missal).  As of right now, I am not planning on including the Eucharistic Prayers for Children, but I may change my mind about that.

What follows is my research list; these are books that do at least one of the following:
  • provide a commentary on the whole Mass (including the Roman Canon and/or other Eucharistic Prayers)
  • provide a commentary on the Eucharistic Prayers of the Roman Rite (whether just the Roman Canon or other Eucharistic Prayers as well)
If you know of any books not on this list that you think I should get, please provide them in the comment-box!
  • The Bible and the Liturgy (Danielou)
  • The Bible and the Mass (Stravinskas)
