Some more books on Mary, for both Protestants and Catholics

In trying to answer a question for a friend, I realized what a paucity of books about Mary are in the Logos catalogue. Here are some suggestions, based on trusted publishers that I know Logos works with (or should work with if they don't), of what I've found on Amazon.com:

Mary, Mother of God edited by Carl E. Braaten and Robert W. Jenson (Eerdmans, 2004) - contributors include Jaroslav Pelikan and Timothy George
Mary Through the Centuries: Her Place in the History of Culture by Jaroslav Pelikan (Yale U Press, 1998)
Mary: Glimpses of the Mother of Jesus (Personalities of the New Testament series) by Beverly Roberts Gaventa (Fortress Press, 1999)
Mary for Evangelicals: Toward an Understanding of the Mother of Our Lord by Tim Perry (IVP Academic, 2006)
Blessed One: Protestant Perspectives on Mary by Cynthia L. Rigby (Westminster John Knox Press, 2002)
Mary and the Fathers of the Church: The Blessed Virgin Mary in Patristic Thought by Luigi S. M. Gambero (Ignatius Press, 1999)
Mary in the Middle Ages: The Blessed Virgin Mary in the Thought of Medieval Latin Theologians by Luigi S. M. Gambero (Ignatius Press, 2005)
Mary in the New Testament by John Reumann (Paulist Press, 1978)
Mary: The Church at the Source by Joseph Cardinal Ratzinger (Ignatius Press, 2005) - forward by Hans Urs von Balthasar
Truly our Sister: A Theology of Mary in the Communion of Saints by Elizabeth A. Johnson (Continuum, 2006)

And another one, a three-volume set of interest to Catholics from a publisher I had not heard of:

Mary of Galilee, Volume I: Mary in the New Testament by Bertrand Ruby, SM (Alba House, 1994)
Mary of Galilee, Volume 2: Woman of Israel Daughter of Zion by Bertrand Ruby, SM (Alba House, 1995)
Mary of Galilee, Volume III: The Marian Heritage of the Early Church by Bertrand Ruby, SM (Alba House, 1997)

And two more that have wonderful art in them:

Full of Grace: Encountering Mary in Faith, Art, and Life by Judith Dupre (Random House, 2010)
Mary, Mother of God: Her Life in Icons and Scripture edited by Giovanna Parravicini (International Development Institute, 2004)

Nice list Rosie. I'd like to add a few early and/or Orthodox resources:

Against Those Who Are Unwilling to Confess that the Holy Virgin Is Theotokos by Patriarch of Alexandria Cyril Saint and George Dion. Dragas (Orthodox Research Institute)
Liturgical Illuminations: Discovering Received Tradition in the Eastern Orthros of Feasts of the Theotokos by Virginia M. Kimball (AuthorHouse)
Mary the Mother of God: Sermons by Saint Gregory Palamas by Saint Gregory Palamas and Christopher Veniamin (Mount Thabor Publishing)
Patristic Sermons on the Feasts of the Theotokos & Ever-Virgin Mary by John A. Peck (Amazon Digital Services, Inc.)
The Life of the Virgin: Maximus the Confessor by Saint Maximus Confessor (Yale University Press)
Theotokos: Theological Encyclopaedia of the Blessed Virgin Mary by Michael O'Carroll (Dominican Publications)

Excellent.

May I also add True Devotion to Mary by St. Louis De Montfort

There are also a couple of titles we'll hopefully get in the Popular Patristics Series, Part 2 or 3 relatively soon: SUGGESTION: Popular Patristics series by St. Vladimir's Seminary Press

And I've been nagging about Raymond Brown et al: Mary in the New Testament. A Collaborative Assessment by Protestant and Roman Catholic Scholars: Some ecumenical books.

Another fairly ecumenical one would be Br. Max Thurian: Mary: Mother of the Lord, Figure of the Church. (He was the 'chief theologian' of Taizé and an observer during Vatican II. Born Reformed, but rumours say he converted to Catholicism a few years before his death (long after this book was written).)

And then there's Scott Hahn, of course (but I suspect that will turn up before New Year whether we suggest it or not).
