Does anyone know if there are any books specifically about John Billington from the Mayflower?

I am a descendant looking for more info. Yes I know his son almost blew up the Mayflower etc. My family comes from Francis Billington. (Slate)

Does anyone know if there are any books specifically about John Billington from the Mayflower?

These folks should know if there is.
Reply:The Mayflower Society has published the 5-generation descendants of John Billington. You should be able to find it in many of the larger libraries.
