Can anyone recommend a good Jonah Commentary?

I feel a burden to preach through Jonah after I finish Philippians.

I've got Hugh Martin's masterful work on Jonah so far. What else should I get?

'Jonah - Prophet and Patriot' by David Ephraim Hart-Davies is a useful work recently re-printed and available from www.quintapress.com

He posits an interesting and valid theory about why Jonah did not do as he was told, and it is not cowardice, but a concern for the glory of God. A very interesting read.

The Prophet Jonah by Samuel Burn
Jonah; His Life, Character, and Mission by Patrick Fairbairn.

The only problem is they might be out of print now.

Calvin is pretty good too.
