Thank you to Andrew Bernard and Manuela Gößnitzer for their help.

After a bunch more fiddling, I came up with something I can live with.
The basic structure is :

\Book
\markup       %the book title
\pageBreak
\bookPart
\markup       %the title on the first page, + the number of the first exercise
\score          % the reduced intro score
\score          % the score of the first exercise
\pageBreak
\bookPart
\markup       % the number of the second exercise
\score          % the reduces intro score for the second exercise
\score          % the score for the second exercise
. . .              % etc.

I *do* wish I could get some space between the \bookPart \markup and
the reduced \score that follows.

It would have taken me much longer without your hints. Thank you!

All the best,

Ralph
