The table in post #1 took so long that I forgot to attach and comment on the data plots. Most books seem to be between 2500 and 3000 bytes per page, but there can be quite a bit of variation, with Ford's autobiography is around 2000 and Utopia For Realists 1500.

Hidden Figures is 2500ish in the main text, but on end matter section run over 5000 and another well over 25,000.
