There is a list of historical fruit books in the general reference page:
This page I planned on splitting into multiple pages as it filled out, and it would be nice to have a reference page on historical books alone. Any regular can edit these wiki pages, so perhaps you would like to take a go at filling out that historical books section? Once its big enough it can be its own reference page.
In general editors are welcome for any component of the general reference, much of that is just a shell now. I might work on it some myself this winter.
