gee, barron, i'm so sorry, hon.
dang. a book, huh? now i'm paranoid about EVERYTHING.
i know the basic item command, the only problem is that most quest items are, well, special.
they require going into the Editor
opening the morrowind.esm file (which can take a loooong time)
then scrolling thru the item lists, specifically for Books
inside books finding the one you need
there will be a description of it, write it down
then open the console and enter
player->AddItem "XXX"
(where XXX is the game id you found for the book)
sorry, hon.
V***V
