Again IIRC, one Robert? Hall around the same time published a reconstruction
of Proto-Romance that was something of a landmark.  Probably in a journal,
not a book.  Sorry, can't provide a reference at the moment.

It was Robert A. Hall.  It wasn't a book, it was *three* books, tho the last
appeared much later.
        "External history of the Romance languages" (Mostly dispensable for purely
                linguistic purposes.)
        "Proto-Romance Phonology"
        "Proto-Romance Morphology"  (I think, I haven't got it here.)
