> OK, just to clarify, I ran this command immediately after selecting the "Book" font from menu-set-font, and incorrectly getting the bold font. I did not then run the set-face-attribute command discussed above. The result was:

Thanks, the only thing I find strange here is that Emacs never tries
to look for "book" font, nor even under one of its aliases.

Another thing I see is that you have 3 active font backends: xfont,
ftfont, and fcrhb.  Maybe that has something to do with the issue...
