My book is done. I'm left with twenty seven (27) Mathematica Notebooks (.nb's) How do I convert these notebooks to the pdf format? How do I combine all twenty seven (27) pdfs into a single pdf? Thanks for reading this!

Put all the notebooks into one, then export as PDF. You can add in page breaks via the Insert menu: (insert) Page Break.
nb = NotebookOpen["/Users/chris/Documents/notebook.nb"];
Export[FileNameJoin[{$InitialDirectory, "output.pdf"}], nb]
You can modify layout in advance. This setting persists only for the session.
SetOptions[$FrontEndSession,
PrintingOptions -> {"PrintingMargins" -> {{45, 43}, {17, 31}},
"FirstPageHeader" -> False, "FirstPageFooter" -> False,
"RestPagesHeader" -> False, "RestPagesFooter" -> False,
"Magnification" -> 1}];

$\begingroup$ Thanks. Your answer is a bit over my head. Could you please specify a file path assuming my notebooks are in a folder on my Desktop (Windows 10 Pro)? $\endgroup$– HenryBFeb 6, 2018 at 3:29

nb = NotebookOpen["C:\\Users\\HenryB\\Desktop\\folder\\notebook.nb"];Export["C:\\Users\\HenryB\\Desktop\\folder\\output.pdf", nb, "PDF"]$\endgroup$ Feb 6, 2018 at 9:02
