Thanks for the constructive comments on my composition.  I did not
really set out to compose a problem; I found the combination while
analyzing a possibility in an e-mail game and tried to simplify the
setting.  I thought it was attractive, but I see that someone had a
similar idea.  I did not know about this problem and it  took me 30
minutes to solve it!  I note, however, that as in my problem, for the
last move there are 2 ways to mate.  I'll have to find out more about
the book you recommended.
